Description

A Veramin Kilim, hand-woven with hand-spun wool and dyes.  We have a beautiful new collection of kilims from Shashavan and Veramin.  All hand-made this particular kilim is hand-stitched together in panels with a contemporary design, with a rustic and natural look, using fantastic burnt orange tones, browns, blacks, sandy tones and hints of reds and blues around the designs.  A really beautiful piece.  This kilim would be a natural look to work with a traditional or modern setting.

Veramin is an ancient city full of mosques and shrines, a central bazaar town for Kurdish and Shashavan people.  Decorative techniques include slit-weave, with motifs outlined in weft-wrapping technique and contour bands in contrasting colours.   This production take some of the ancient designs and uses them to produce these minimalistic patterns, which work wonderfully in traditional and modern settings.

Visit our showroom or request a home visit to see this Veramin kilim up close, or purchase online and we can ship it straight to your home.

Kilims or Kelims are woven differently from piled carpets as they are constructed with a flat pile.  This is done by using wool interwoven through the warp foundation rather than pushed up to create a knotted pile which is then cut down.  Kilims originate are famous from Anatolia, but have been hand-woven in Afghanistan, Iran, India and the Caucasus for centuries.  Dyes are varying from one weaving area to the next but mainly consist of vegetable dyes.

Please request a home visit if you would like to view this antique Kelim in-situ, we love to travel and help customers find the perfect rug for their home.  It is a free, no obligation service we have offered for over 25 years of business.
