Tapestry Kilim Under - Rug - 200 cm - 135 cm

Indian tapestry kilims are fascinating works of art that bridge traditional weaving with modern design. While the classic kilim traces its origins more to Persia or Turkey, India has adapted this technique and refined it through regional materials and colors.

Here is a brief overview of what makes these pieces so special:

1. The technique: flat-weave instead of knotting
Unlike classical Oriental carpets, kilims have no pile. They are made in the flat-woven method (tapestry technique), where the weft threads are beaten so tightly that they completely cover the warp threads.

Two-sidedness: Most Indian kilims are reversible, i.e., usable from both sides.

Structure: They are thinner, lighter, and more flexible than knotted carpets, making them ideal as a wall hanging (tapestry) or a light summer floor covering.
