It is a Kilim rug, which means that it is flat woven and does not have any pile. Usually Kilim rugs are made from wool, as is the case with this large rug. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDue to the way in which this type of Kilim rug is woven, the patterns that can be produced are limited to straight lines and diagonals. The designs created in this large Kilim are mostly composed of diamonds, triangles and stepped motifs. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow was this large Afghan Kilim rug made?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis large Afghan rug was handwoven with a flat-weaving method known as slit-weaving. It was made from only wool. A Kilim rug is made from just warp threads and weft threads. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe warp threads are the first yarns to be secured onto the loom. These are the long threads upon which the weaver weaves the design. It is by weaving the woollen weft threads that the weavers create the pattern. These threads are woven in blocks of colour. Slit-weaving is a reference to the tiny gap or slit that occurs between two colour sections. This happens because each colour section is started from a fresh warp thread. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUsing this large Afghan Flat Weave Rug in your home\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLike the majority of our Afghan Kilim rugs, this large rug was made for use on the floor. This room sized rug is ideally suited for use in living rooms and dining rooms. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese Afghan Kilims represent excellent value for money. Due to the weaving methodology, these rugs are far quicker to make than a comparably sized hand-knotted carpet. As a consequence, you get a large floor coverage for a very reasonable price! \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can keep it nicely in position by placing it on top of an anti-slip rug underlay. The benefits of this are two-fold: from a safety aspect - it will help stop slips and mishaps; and by keeping it perfectly flat will help keep it looking great. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eYou might not be aware...\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can flip this Kilim rug over and use it on the other side.
