Characteristics of the Region (Saveh)

Saveh is located southwest of Tehran and is known as a kilim producing region in Iran. Kilims woven in this region often use cotton for the warp and wool for the weft, making them durable and long-lasting. They also feature diverse designs and attractive rich color schemes. The colors and patterns reflect the local nature and traditions, and one of the characteristics of Saveh kilims is that you can enjoy a different beauty with each kilim.

What is a Kilim?

Persian hand-woven kilims are globally popular traditional hand-woven textiles that become more beautiful with age. Depending on when 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 made of wool, some kilims made with cotton or silk are also produced. They use natural materials. Since natural dyes are also used for coloring, you can use them with peace of mind. These hand-woven kilims are durable and are based on the design styles of tribes and ethnic groups known as tribal rugs. They feature geometric patterns with motifs of 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 vary by region of origin, allowing you to enjoy a diverse range of design patterns.

They add a unique charm and warmth to a room's space. By utilizing kilims, you can create a life with art and comfort, and enjoy a life surrounded by things you love.

Kilims and Interior Design

Kilims are very flexible in their use and can be incorporated into various interior styles. In modern interiors, incorporating the unique patterns and colors of a kilim into a simple space adds an accent to the space. For natural and Scandinavian interiors, the warmth and natural atmosphere of kilims can be enhanced by arranging wooden furniture and plants, or combining them with interiors made of natural materials. They also go well with a bohemian atmosphere, and by laying them on the floor or hanging them on the wall, they can enhance the overall atmosphere of the room.

By placing them as tapestries or cushions, you can add warmth and depth to the entire room.

Daily Care

Remove dust and debris 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 or similar cloth firmly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, carefully wipe with a damp cloth to remove the detergent and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

Please Note
