DESCRIPTION

We attribute this attractive, red field kellegi to the Chahar Mahal Bakhtiari area, but it shows SW traits including the cream borer with its multicolor reversing fan palmettes. The field repeats slender oblique navy acanthus leaves and open yellow lateral reserves, along with central ecru diamonds. Pattern is both rare and nameless, unlike many repeating designs. Saturated palette. Good condition. Wool warp.
