The Arab tribes of southern Iran wove a type of kilim called Shiraki, which means needlework, although they were woven on a loom. Practically all of them were made in two halves and joined at the center.
In this shiraki, and on a deep red background, a garden of small flowers has been arranged on alaticework. Larger flowers have been woven for the border. The use of turquoise blue stands out.
