Characteristics of the Region (Bijar)

Bijar, in northwestern Iran, is known for kilims woven by the Kurdish people. These rugs are extremely sturdy and durable. They are characterized by small floral patterns and medallions, with beautiful designs that stand out.

What is a Kilim?

Persian handwoven kilims are popular worldwide and are traditional handwoven textiles that develop a deeper character with use. Depending on the era they were woven, they are called vintage kilims, old kilims, or antique kilims, and are loved by people of all ages. While most kilims are wool, some kilims made with cotton or silk are also produced. Natural materials are used. Since natural dyes are also used for dyeing, you can use them with peace of mind. These handwoven kilims are sturdily woven and are based on the design styles of tribes and ethnic groups known as tribal rugs. They feature geometric patterns inspired by nature and animals, and each kilim has a unique design.
Various ethnic groups live in the vast land of Iran. The design and color characteristics differ by region of origin, allowing you to enjoy a diverse range of design patterns.

Other Uses for Kilims

Kilims are not only used simply as carpets or floor coverings, but also widely as other interior items, such as hanging them on walls, or on sofas, tables, and beds. Their unique designs and colors are distinctive, and they are often utilized as accents in a room. Kilims are not merely decorative items but are positioned as important elements that enrich the overall atmosphere of a room and emphasize its individuality. They add a unique charm and warmth to a living space. By using kilims, you can create a life with art and a comfortable life, and enjoy living surrounded by things you love.

Kilims and Interior Design

Kilims can be integrated into various interior styles with great flexibility. In modern interiors, incorporating the unique patterns and colors of a kilim into a simple space adds an accent to the area. For natural or Scandinavian interiors, combining kilims with wooden furniture, plants, or other natural materials can enhance their warmth and natural ambiance. They also pair well with a bohemian atmosphere; placing them on the floor or hanging them on the wall can elevate the entire room's feel. Kilims have an ethnic design and tribal atmosphere, making them a good match for interiors that incorporate cultural elements from Iran, Turkey, or Morocco. Placing them as tapestries or cushions can add warmth and depth to the entire room.

Daily Care

Remove dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner or broom. If you are concerned about stains, dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water, wring out a towel firmly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, wipe thoroughly with water to remove the detergent and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

Please Note

Due to being handwoven, there may be slight distortions in shape, weaving irregularities, or dyeing variations. Please enjoy these as part of the unique charm of handweaving.
