Yalameh carpets come from the mountainous tribal regions of southern Iran. The Yalameh weaving tradition is relatively little known outside specialist circles, which is part of what makes these pieces interesting. The geometric pattern vocabulary is bold and direct, and the wool on wool construction gives the carpet a density and resilience well suited to regular use.
The multicolour palette of this small piece at 3 ft 5 in x 4 ft 11 in is warm and varied. Yalameh carpets typically use a wider range of colours than most tribal traditions from the same region, which gives them a visual richness that single-ground pieces do not have. At 144 knots per square inch the detail is good for a tribal piece.
