Kilim Tribal Handwoven Rug 2’7’’ X 4’8’’

A kilim runner that brings tribal geometry and flatweave heritage into hallways and narrow spaces—reversible construction and artisan integrity in a versatile format.

Craftsmanship & Provenance
Hand-woven by Afghan artisans using traditional flatweave techniques, this 2'7" × 4'8" piece reflects the disciplined geometry and vibrant palette characteristic of Central Asian kilim-making. The flatweave construction—created by tightly interlocking warp and weft threads—requires exceptional technical skill and pattern memory. Woven on a traditional loom with careful attention to motif clarity and color distribution, the reversible design extends longevity and versatility.

Materials & Construction
Crafted from hand-spun Ghazni wool colored with natural dyes, the rug features a rich palette of traditional tribal colors—terracotta, charcoal, ivory, and rust—arranged in rhythmic geometric bands. Ghazni wool—celebrated for its superior strength, softness, and ability to hold vibrant dyes—creates a flatweave construction ideal for layering or high-traffic areas, with durability that improves with age. Each pass of the weft thread contributes to a surface of remarkable tactile density.

Design & Aesthetic
Traditional tribal motifs—diamonds, chevrons, and geometric patterns—create visual movement across the field while maintaining compositional balance. The 2'7" × 4'8" runner format (approximately 12 square feet) makes this piece ideal for hallways, entryways, galley kitchens, or layering beneath larger rugs. Works beautifully with neutral furnishings, natural materials, and gallery-like spaces.

Dimensions & Care
Measures 2'7" × 4'8". Reversible design extends longevity. Professional cleaning recommended.

One-of-a-kind.
