Classic and Modern Kilim Oriental Rugs

Kilim rugs are handwoven flatweaves with no pile, crafted from fine sheep’s wool or cotton. They originate from regions of the Near and Middle East, the Caucasus, Turkey, India, Afghanistan and Pakistan. The motifs tell stories of tribal affiliation, faith and daily life—geometric patterns, stripes, medallions, stylised animals, or purely decorative areas. Today, kilims are equally authentic oriental rugs, modern home accessories, and creative designer fabrics.

Manufacturing Process – Handwoven Flatweave Tradition

Material Selection and Dyeing:

Each kilim starts with premium wool (or cotton), often hand-spun and locally sourced. Plant-based and mineral dyes create vibrant, natural colours and individual variegations.

Weaving Technique & Pattern Creation:

Kilim looms are set up with taut warp threads. Using a shuttle or skilful hands, experienced weavers interlace the colourful weft between the warps, building up patterns row by row—stripes, zigzags, diamonds, medallions or tribal figurals. The result: a reversible, robust and lightweight flatweave with iconic character.

Finishing & Quality Control:

After weaving, fringing and edges are neatly finished. Each kilim is washed, dried and thoroughly inspected. Only pieces displaying true craftsmanship are selected by us and receive our certificate of authenticity.

Pattern Diversity & Colour Palette – Limitless Creativity

Geometric patterns: diamonds, zigzags, checkerboards, circles and combinations
Striped designs: horizontal, vertical or patchwork/block layouts
Minimalist: solid-coloured or tone-on-tone surfaces, blends, block stripes
Figural & tribal: nomadic symbols, stylised animals, trees, tree of life motifs
Trend colours: from deep red, magenta, orange, yellow, green, turquoise, blue to calming beige, sand, anthracite or extroverted multicoloured one-of-a-kinds

Styling Tips & Interior Inspiration – How to Make Kilims Shine

Kilim rugs are the multitaskers of textile interior design: under the dining table, as a stylish kitchen runner, as wall hangings or striking beside the bed—their flexibility knows no bounds. Make a multicolour kilim a focal point, or opt for subtle tone-on-tone designs for calm, open spaces. Durable kilims are also fantastic outdoors or on stairs. Combine with matching cushions, throws and natural materials for the perfect textile ensemble.

Living room & lounge: Vibrant kilims bring pops of colour to wood, leather or concrete
Hallways & kitchens: Flatweaves are resilient, lightweight and flexible
Bedrooms: As bedspread, rug beside the bed, or layered on carpet
Kids' rooms: Durable, allergy-friendly, colourful—perfect for play
Wall, gallery & office: Kilims make wonderful wall hangings, decorative runners or statement pieces

Choosing the Right Size – Flexible Flatweaves for Every Space

Kilim rugs are available in every common size: small (e.g. 90x60 cm, 120x80 cm) as mats, bathroom textiles or wall art; medium (e.g. 150x100 cm, 170x120 cm, 200x150 cm) bring cosiness to sofa corners, dining zones or bedrooms; large and extra-large kilims (e.g. 240x170 cm, 270x180 cm, 300x200 cm, 300x250 cm, 350x250 cm, 400x300 cm) structure living spaces, lofts and open-plan offices. Slim runners (e.g. 250x70 cm, 300x80 cm) add colour and style to hallways, kitchens or covered patios. For a festival of layering in ethnic style, mix and match sizes for bold effect!

FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions about Kilim Rugs

Are kilims easy to care for?

Absolutely—regular vacuuming and the occasional flip are sufficient. They’re resistant to dirt and extremely durable.

How does a kilim differ from a classic rug?

Kilims are thin, flat-woven rugs without a pile. They are reversible and more flexible than knotted oriental rugs with pile.

Do kilims only work for ethnic looks?

Certainly not—they’re the perfect partners for modern minimalism, Scandi, boho, urban style, and even antiques, vintage and classic interiors.
