Serape Kilim 1572

This striking late-20th-century Mexican Serape kilim is a compelling example of regional textile artistry, blending bold graphic design with traditional weaving techniques. Handwoven in Mexico in the final quarter of the 1900s, the rug features a powerful Mexican flag–inspired central motif, symbolizing national identity, heritage, and pride through a modernist lens.

The sophisticated palette of gray, black, and ivory gives the piece a dramatic yet refined presence.   Constructed from two finely woven panels expertly joined, the kilim reflects a traditional production method often used to achieve larger-scale compositions. The weaving is tight and well executed, giving the textile excellent structure and longevity while preserving the handmade character that defines authentic serape work.
