Characteristics of the Origin (Bijar)

Bijar, located in northwestern Iran, is known for kilims woven by the Kurdish people. These rugs are extremely durable and long-lasting. They are characterized by small floral patterns and medallions, with beautiful designs that stand out.

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 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 durably 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 a unique design.

Various ethnic groups live in the vast land of Iran. The designs and color characteristics differ by region, allowing you to enjoy a diverse range of design patterns.

Other Uses for Kilims

Kilims are not only used as rugs or floor coverings, but also widely utilized as decorative items for walls, sofas, tables, beds, and other interior furnishings. Their distinctive designs and colors are a prominent feature, and they are often used as an accent 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. They add a unique charm and warmth to a room's space. By utilizing kilims, you can create a life with art, a comfortable life, and enjoy being surrounded by things you love.

Kilims and Interior Design

Kilims are incredibly versatile 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. For natural or Scandinavian interiors, pairing them with wooden furniture, plants, or other natural materials can enhance the kilim's warmth and natural feel. They also pair well with a bohemian atmosphere, enhancing the overall mood of a room whether laid on the floor or hung on a wall. 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. Arranging 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 or similar cloth firmly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, wipe thoroughly with water to remove the detergent, and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

Please Note

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