KILIMS

Kilims are flat tapestry-woven carpets or rugs produced from the Balkans to Pakistan. Kilims can be purely decorative or can function as prayer rugs.

The name 'kilim' or 'kelim' is Turkish, and comes from the Persian gelim 'to spread roughly', which is probably of Mongolian origin.

Kilims are produced by tightly interweaving the warp and weft strands of the weave to produce a flat surface with no pile.

Our Kilims are all handmade in Turkey and many are semi-antique and one of a kind.
