Hand-Woven Wool Kilim Afghan Rug, 179 × 240 cm

About this rug

Origin Afghanistan, format 179 × 240 cm — a Kilim made entirely by hand. That is roughly 4.3 m² of floor, about 5.9' × 7.9'.

What it is made of

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

Format and use

A size where sofa and armchairs can rest their front legs on the rug.

Flatweave

Because it is woven rather than knotted, the structure is flat and usable on both sides.

On the colourway

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