Kilim 154×105

Kilim rugs differ significantly from hand-knotted rugs in that they are woven by hand. They do not have a raised pile of wool, which often makes them flatter and rougher than knotted wool rugs. Their construction is less complex, which generally makes them significantly less expensive. Kilim rugs are also lighter and can be used on both sides. Originally from Persia, they are now also widely manufactured in India. Their patterns are rather simple and straightforward, which is due to the weaving technique. These characteristics make kilim rugs a practical and versatile choice for many living spaces.
