Antique Afghani Kilim Wool Rug - 7x14

Take home a piece of old world artistry. This rug is durable and of a very high quality. It's an old one. How old, we can't tell. This particular Kilim Rug comes from Afghanistan. The Afghanis have a strong heritage in rug weaving. This one was intricately flat-woven by hand on a loom from genuine wool. It has been colored with natural dyes made from plants and roots gathered from the earth. This Kilim rug is adorned with the traditional patterns, symbols, and motifs. This incredible 100% Wool Kilim is 7.09' by 14.01'. Don't let this rare opportunity pass you by!

The word 'Kilim' is of a Turkish origin, and it denotes a flat-woven textile with its heritage and origin in Turkey, Turkmenistan, North Africa, Iran, China, Pakistan, the Caucasus, and the Balkans. The oldest existing kilim rugs have been dated back to the fifth century B.C. They were discovered in Siberia by Russian archaeologist S. I. Rudenko in the 1940's. However, it is widely believed that the origins of the kilim date back to the invention of the loom. Genuine wool is the most popular material for Kilim weaving due to its durability and plentiful supply. Some Kilims have been made from silk and animal hair, but wool remains to be the primary material. Kilim rugs often carry traditional symbols that have strong associations with ancient mythology. Most of the time these symbols communicate a cultural message to the viewer giving these rugs a great amount of traditional importance.
