These wefts are woven in blocks of colour, which forms the pattern of the rug.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSometimes you can see a small gap in the weave where the colours meet and this is known as \"slit weave\". However, on this particular handwoven Kilim rug you can see that where the colours meet, they intersect on the same warp thread. This is known as an \"interlocking weave\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDid you know?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne of the benefits of this type of Kilim weaving is that the rug is the same on both sides - meaning you can use it either way up!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eKey details: \u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul type=\"disc\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCountry of origin:\u003c\/b\u003e Afghanistan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDimensions: \u003c\/b\u003e199x155cm \/ 6’6”x5’1”\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eThickness: \u003c\/b\u003e3mm\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWeft:\u003c\/b\u003e Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWarp: \u003c\/b\u003eWool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eAge:\u003c\/b\u003e New\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"The Oriental Rug Merchant Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58081591329099,"sku":"TORM-1089-HANDWOVEN GREEN KILIM RUG-199 X 155CM","price":199.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1070\/3113\/4539\/files\/VD-1.99x1.55m_MAIN.jpg?v=1786283236","url":"https:\/\/theorientalrugmerchant.co.uk\/products\/handwoven-green-kilim-rug","provider":"The Oriental Rug Merchant Ltd","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
