Balkan Floral Kilim Runner — 14.2 x 2.7 — No. 174

A long floral runner woven in the folk kilim traditions of the Balkans (likely Romania or Bulgaria, mid-century). Bright bouquets bloom in rhythm down a charcoal ground, rendered in the pixelated block shapes of rural pattern charts.

These designs once adorned benches, beds, and wooden floors, woven for warmth and visual joy. At over 4 meters long, this piece brings both movement and color: part floral, part code.
