Description

traditional hand woven kilim rug | Amina

Home Barn’s traditionally hand woven kilim rugs have been carefully selected by us to feature natural, faded colours and eye catching yet subtle designs within the weave.  We have chosen only the rugs we would love to have in our own homes.  Our decisions are based on overall size, colour and pattern within the weave. In order to find 10 rugs we love we often have to look through around 150 rugs, and this is really hard as they are all beautiful but some are too bright and some are too bold.

Due to being hand woven each and every one of our woolen traditional hand woven kilim rugs are totally unique.  Therefore, there are never two made which are exactly the same.  The weaver has the artistic licence to create his or her own design often choosing colours which are to hand and available on the day.

Each length of wool is hand dyed using naturally occurring organic dyes found from nature.  Kilims are made by interweaving the variously coloured wefts and warps, creating what is known as a flatweave.

Kilims are made using the slitweave technique. The slit refers to the gap left between two colours. Generally created by returning the weft around the last warp in a colour area.  Then the weft of the adjacent colour is later wound around the adjacent warp.

Weavers pack the weft tightly to cover the warp and often use diagonal patterns so as to avoid weakening the structure of the rug.  This method traditionally produces bold, patterns that weavers create with more freedom than a plainweave. Kilims are  closely associated with geometrical designs even though there are are kilims with floral motifs as well. All of our kilims have strong but suble geometric weaves.
