What is a Kilim?

Persian hand-woven kilims are globally popular traditional hand-woven textiles that become more beautiful with use. Depending on the era in which they were woven, they are called vintage kilims, old kilims, or antique kilims, and are loved by people of all ages.

They add unique charm and warmth to a room. By utilizing kilims, you can create a lifestyle surrounded by art and comfort, and enjoy living with the things you love.

Kilims and Interior Design

Kilims can be flexibly incorporated into various interior design styles. In modern interiors, incorporating the unique patterns and colors of a kilim into a simple space adds an accent to that space. For natural or Scandinavian interiors, pairing them with wooden furniture, plants, or other natural materials can enhance the warmth and natural ambiance of the kilim. They also blend well with a bohemian atmosphere; laying them on the floor or hanging them on the wall can elevate the entire room's mood. Kilims have an ethnic design and tribal feel, making them a good match for interiors that incorporate cultural elements from Iran, Turkey, Morocco, and other regions. 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 tightly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, carefully wipe with a damp cloth to remove the detergent, and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.
