This Afghan kilim is a pure wool flat-weave. Unlike most of our rugs, Kilims are flat-woven and have no pile. This makes them lighter and more affordable than similarly sized items in our range.
Bright and decorative, this colourful kilim is hand woven using wool and natural vegetable dyes. the rug features traditional eastern motifs throughout the rug, the most common of which are the evil eye motifs used to ward off misfortune and evil. In eastern cultures, such motifs are often weaved into rugs as a way of bringing protection to the owner.
This piece has a gray background which is contrasted by the reds, blues, greens, yellow, oranges, browns, purples and golds of the geometric motifs.
