Hand-Woven Wool Kilim Afghan Rug, 123 × 180 cm

Overview

This Kilim comes from Afghanistan and measures 123 × 180 cm. The covered area is about 2.21 m² (4' × 5.9').

Construction

Stated material: cotton warp, new wool. It is entirely hand-woven. Pile height is given as 5mm.

Format and use

A format for a smaller room, or the area directly in front of a sofa.

How it is made

As a flatweave this piece has no pile: front and back carry the same pattern, and it lies very flat.

On the colourway

The stated colourway is blue / Türkis. Handmade rugs always show slight colour shifts from knot to knot — that is a mark of hand work, not a defect.
