It is one of those useful sized rugs that you can pop down anywhere in your home and it will add some zing to any room in which you place it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt doesn't just look nice, it is functional too. It was handwoven from just wool, so you will have it and enjoy it for many years to come. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhat makes it even more special is that because it is handmade, it is a one-of-a-kind rug. The exact combination of colours and design will not be repeated. Incredible!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow was this Kilim rug made?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Afghan Kilim was made totally from wool. As a Kilim, this rug was flat woven, so it thus does not have any pile. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFlat weaves are quicker to weave than hand-knotted rugs, which is a reason why the Afghan Kilims are so reasonably priced. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis rug would have been woven by one weaver. It has woollen warps and woollen wefts. The warps are the yarns upon which the wefts are woven. It is the colourful weft threads that the weaver uses to create the stunning colours and pattern of the rug. The colours are woven in sections of colour between the warp threads. Where the colour changes there is a small slit in the weave as the next colour is woven from the next available warp thread. This is a common flat weaving method known as \"slit weave\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis form of weaving limits the patterns created to straight lines and diagonals, so designs are often created from diamonds and triangles. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHandy to know...\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePop an anti-skid rug underlay under this Kilim to stop it from slipping. The nature of flat weave Kilim rugs is that they are fairly lightweight rugs, so prevent any slips or trips with a rug underlay. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eKey details:\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCountry of origin: Afghanistan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 124x83cm \/ 4'1\"x2'9\" \u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eThickness: 4mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarp: Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWeft: Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAge: New\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Oriental Rug Merchant Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58081488372043,"sku":"TORM-1245-AFGHAN MULTICOLOUR KILIM RUG-124 X 83CM","price":95.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1070\/3113\/4539\/files\/VD-Kilim-1.24x0.83m_MAIN.jpg?v=1786282630","url":"https:\/\/theorientalrugmerchant.co.uk\/products\/afghan-small-kilim-rug-1-24x0-83m","provider":"The Oriental Rug Merchant Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
