Afghan Vintage Kilims
Afghan vintage Kilims are exquisite handwoven carpets that originate from Afghanistan, a country known for its rich tradition of carpet weaving. These rugs are crafted by skilled artisans using age-old techniques that have been passed down through generations. Vintage kilim rugs are captivating woven textiles that originate from Afghanistan, showcasing the region’s rich heritage of kilim weaving. Kilims are flat-woven rugs, characterised by their distinct lack of pile. They are created using a technique called ‘slit-weave,’ where the weft yarns are tightly woven through the warp yarns, resulting in a flat and reversible surface.
