Antique Caucasian Kilim - 5'2" x 10'2"
This product is available!
This antique Caucasian Kilim, measuring 5'2" by 10'2", is handwoven with vegetable-dyed wool on a wool foundation in the Karabagh region of the Caucasus. Kilims and flat weaves are distinguished by their lack of pile, created through the tight interlacing of warp and weft strands to form a smooth, flat surface. Typically woven on horizontal looms similar to tapestries, this technique yields sharp geometric patterns. Lighter and softer than traditional pile rugs, kilims have historically served versatile roles as sofa covers, drapes, pillows, tablecloths, and wall hangings, providing insulation against harsh cold.
