The Mazandaran Roxane Line

The Mazandaran Roxane Collection is a Djoharian Design line of oversized hand-woven kilims inspired by the panel and checkerboard idioms of the Caspian region of northern Iran. These flatweaves combine tribal weaving traditions with a Scandinavian-Art-Deco aesthetic, making them a graphic foundation for contemporary interiors. The kilims are hand-woven from hand-spun wool, with a clean panel composition that reads as both tribal and minimalist.

This piece is the Black and Wool-White variant in the palatial 12 × 15 ft format — the monochrome configuration of the Roxane line, with the strongest graphic contrast for architectural interiors.

Colour and Composition

The palette is the most graphic of the Roxane line: deep black panels on undyed wool-white grounds, in a clean checkerboard rhythm. The flatweave construction gives the surface an ultra-thin, almost graphic presence (height approx. 0.3 cm), while the hand-spun wool retains a subtle textural variation.

Presence in the Room

At 365 × 450 cm (16.4 m², approx. 12 × 15 ft) this is a palatial-format piece for generous interiors. Three contexts in which the Mazandaran Roxane comes into its own:

• Large living room: beneath a sofa group of five to six pieces with side tables and armchairs, the black-and-white checkerboard provides a strongly graphic foundation.
• Dining room: under a long table for ten to twelve, the monochrome panel rhythm reads as a measured architectural pattern from above.
• Loft or gallery space: the ultra-thin profile and the graphic black-and-white composition pair well with concrete, blackened steel and exposed architectural materials.
