Sirjan is a city located in the southern part of Iran, belonging to Kerman province. Kilims woven in Sirjan are called "Suzani" or "Silki Pitchi" and the city is registered as a kilim producing region by UNESCO (United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization).
Sirjan kilims are characterized by their extremely fine and firm weave. Because nomadic women weave them from imagination without a pattern, their delicacy and meticulousness are astonishing. They are Soumak woven, with little fuzz on the surface, and often feature animal and geometric patterns.
Furthermore, Sirjan kilims often have deep colors; red is extracted from cherries, blue from eggplant skins, yellow from saffron, green from walnut leaves, and brown from walnut husks or tobacco. Due to these characteristics, Sirjan kilims are highly valued worldwide and are cherished as beautiful crafts.

Persian hand-woven kilims are globally popular traditional hand-woven textiles that become more appealing with age.

Kilims are widely used not only as simple rugs or floor coverings but also as decorative items hung on walls, or as part of other interior elements such as 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; they are positioned as important elements that enrich the overall atmosphere of a room and highlight its individuality.

Kilims feature ethnic designs and tribal aesthetics, making them suitable for interiors that incorporate cultural elements from Iran, Turkey, and Morocco.

Remove dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner or broom. If stains are a concern, dilute a neutral detergent (for wool and 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.

Due to being hand-woven, there may be slight distortions in shape, weaving irregularities, or dyeing inconsistencies. Please enjoy these as part of the charm of a hand-woven item.
