What is a Kilim?

Persian hand-woven kilims are globally popular traditional hand-woven textiles that grow more beautiful with age. Depending on when they were woven, they are referred to as vintage kilims, old kilims, or antique kilims, and are loved by people of all ages. While most kilims are made of wool, some are also produced using cotton or silk. They use natural materials. Since natural dyes are also used for coloring, you can use them with peace of mind.

Daily Care

Remove dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner or broom. If stains are a concern, dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water and gently wipe the surface with a tightly wrung towel or similar. Afterward, wipe thoroughly with water to remove the detergent, then dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

Notes

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