Kilim 208×166

Kilim rugs differ fundamentally from hand-knotted variants as they are woven by hand and do not have a raised wool pile, which makes them flatter and rougher. This significantly reduces production costs. In addition, they are lighter and can be used on both sides, which increases their versatility. Originally developed in Persia, kilims are now also produced in Afghanistan. They are characterised by their simple, linear patterns, which are created by the weaving technique. This makes them not only a historically significant craft, but also a popular style feature in modern interiors worldwide.
