Kilim 408×81

Kilim rugs differ significantly from hand-knotted rugs in that they are woven by hand. As a result, they do not have a high wool pile and are often flatter and rougher to the touch than knotted rugs. They are less complex to manufacture, which generally makes them more affordable. Another advantage is their lower weight and the fact that they can be used on both sides. Originally from Persia, hand-woven kilims are now also frequently produced in Afghanistan. They are characterised by simple, linear patterns, which are the result of their special weaving technique. Kilim carpets are known for their durability and rustic charm, which can complement both traditional and modern interiors.
