Kilim 210×160

Kilim rugs differ fundamentally from hand-knotted rugs in that they are woven by hand and do not have a raised wool pile. This makes them flatter and rougher to the touch, which reduces their manufacturing costs. Their lighter texture allows them to be used on both sides. Originally from Persia, they are now also frequently produced in Afghanistan. Kelim rugs are characterised by their simple, linear patterns, which are created using a special weaving technique. These features make them not only a cultural heritage, but also a practical and aesthetically appealing element of interior design in many parts of the world.
