Characteristics of the Origin (Bijar)

Bijar, located 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, and their beautiful designs stand out.

What is a Kilim?

Persian hand-woven kilims are popular worldwide and are traditional hand-woven textiles that become more appealing 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. Most kilims are made of wool, but some are also produced using cotton or silk. They use natural materials. Since natural dyes are used for coloring, you can use them with peace of mind. These hand-woven 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 its own unique design.

Various ethnic groups live in the vast land of Iran. The designs and colors vary by region, offering a diverse range of design patterns to enjoy.

Other Uses for Kilims

Kilims are widely used not only as simple rugs or floor coverings but also as wall hangings and as decorative items for other interiors such as sofas, tables, and beds. Their unique designs and colors are distinctive, and they are often used as room accents. Kilims are not merely decorative items but are important elements that enrich the overall atmosphere of a room and highlight its individuality. They add a unique charm and warmth to the living space. By using 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 extremely flexible in how they can be used 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 room. For natural and Nordic interiors, combining them with wooden furniture, plants, or interiors made of natural materials can enhance the warmth and natural atmosphere of the kilim. They also blend well with a bohemian atmosphere; laying them on the floor or hanging them on the wall enhances the overall room ambiance. Kilims have ethnic designs and a tribal feel, making them compatible with interiors that incorporate cultural elements from Iran, Turkey, Morocco, and other regions. Using 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 tightly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, carefully wipe with a damp cloth to remove any detergent and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

Important Notes

Due to being hand-woven, there may be irregularities in shape, weaving unevenness, or dyeing variations. Please enjoy these as part of the unique charm of hand-weaving.
