A kilim is a simple handwoven textile made from warp threads (cotton or wool) and weft threads (wool), typically woven on an upright loom using wool from domesticated animals. Each region has its own distinctive patterns. Despite the strong influence of modernism in our country, this traditional craft has preserved its authenticity.

In rural, nomadic, and even urban life, kilims are used not only as floor coverings but also as garments, table spreads, saddle bags, pouches, curtains, and even as decorative elements in nomadic tents.

Description

One of the most renowned kilims in Iran is the Kurdish Khorasan Kilim, woven by the Kurdish communities currently living in the northern regions of Razavi Khorasan and North Khorasan provinces. The weaving of the Kurdish sofreh is considered one of the most important loom-woven crafts in North Khorasan.

Kurdish Khorasan kilims are predominantly made of wool due to the abundance of wool from Kurdish sheep, with cotton fibers used only occasionally. The yarns are typically hand-spun by the villagers and nomads of the region and dyed with natural plant-based dyes.

If you would like to enrich your space with authentic and traditional Iranian artistry, this kilim will be an excellent choice.
