Flatweaves Tribal Jajim 3

Our tribal flatweaves or kilims (known as gelims in Farsi) are traditional colourful weavings with bold geometric and floral designs. They are woven by Luri and Ghashgha’i nomads who interpret centuries’ old designs and motifs that have been handed down from generation to generation. Gatchme is a mixed-technique flatweave that is a Zollanvari innovation. For these we have adapted the technique used for weaving traditional khorjins (bags) and applied it a room size floor covering. Finally, our popular Jajims are a collection of mixed-technique flatweaves that the nomadic tribes of the Zagros region of southern Iran produce exclusively for us.
