Narrow vertical stripes ranging from grayish tan to brown and then to sandy gold ripple horizontally across the field of lovely antique Lori kilim. The width of the stripes and the order of their arrangement are in constant, spontaneous flux, imparting a gentle but unpredictable rhythm to the design. The fibrous texture or weave works alongside the pepper-and salt-like variations in color, contributing to its rhythmic effect. The color itself is remarkable in its ability to achieve at once a certain coolness along with a distinct warmth.
