Characteristics of the Region (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 grow richer in character with age. Depending on the era they were woven, they are referred to as 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 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 design and color characteristics differ by region of origin, allowing you to enjoy a diverse range of design patterns.

Other Uses for Kilims

Kilims are widely used not only as simple rugs or floor coverings, but also as wall hangings or as elements of other interiors such as sofas, tables, and beds. Their distinctive designs and colors are characteristic, 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 individuality. They add a unique charm and warmth to a living space. By incorporating kilims, you can enjoy a life surrounded by art and comfort, and a life filled with things you love.

Kilims and Interior Design

Kilims offer great flexibility in their use 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 Nordic interiors, combining kilims with wooden furniture, plants, or interiors made from natural materials can enhance their warmth and natural ambiance. They also pair well with bohemian aesthetics, enhancing the overall room atmosphere when placed on the floor or hung on the wall. Kilims have ethnic designs and a tribal feel, making them a good match for interiors that incorporate cultural elements from Iran, Turkey, Morocco, and other regions. By using them as tapestries or cushions, you can add warmth and depth to the entire room.

Daily Care

Remove dirt and dust with a vacuum cleaner or broom. If you notice dirt, dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water, wring out a towel firmly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, thoroughly wipe with a damp cloth to remove the detergent, and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

Important Notes

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