The name 'kilim' or 'kelim' is Turkish, and comes from the Persian gelim which means ‘to spread roughly’.
Another definition of "kilim" takes us back in time with hundreds of years, when ‘kilim’ was called the fabric meant to cover and preserve expensive hand-knotted Persian rugs. The more expensive the hand knotted rug, the more intricate and colorful was the Kilim rug.
Kilims began as a fabric and later became the weaver’s rug which decorated and covered their floors. Though Kilim rugs are considered a classic, today they are extremely fashionable and very highly appreciated as floor coverings for almost any home area.
What is interesting about Kilim Rugs weaving is that it’s flat. They are produced by tightly interweaving the warp and weft strands of the weave to produce a flat surface with no pile. Due to the nature of the weave used, the designs on Kilim rug usually are geometric in nature.
One of the most popular Kilim Rugs collections is by Hellenic Rugs. It’s an exact reproduction of museum pieces of antique Kilim rugs. I haven’t presented area rugs from that particular collection above. However, I promise soon there will be a few styles.
Another very popular Kilim Rugs collection is by Safavieh Carpets. Unlike the Hellenic Kilim rugs, these old Kilim rugs by Safavieh are very well presented above. You will love them for the great antique inspired colors and patterns, as well for the great prices (15% OFF discount) for such quality rug styles by top branded manufacturer.
Terkan rug is also inspired by traditional flat weave Kilim rugs. This style is presented from Milliken Rugs. It is versatile for many different home interiors. The antique colors of this central oriented design and the playful bolder colorations will add a splash of colors to any room in your home.
The Troika Rugs collection by Central Oriental Rugs offers you patterns ranging from traditional to tropical. The so called Kilim area rug styles in this collection are imitations of the traditional Kilim rugs. Actually they have nothing to do with them as they are machine made in the USA with 100% olefin. That means they will be removed shortly and will be replaced with a few Hellenic Kilim Rugs, just like I promised earlier.
