Persian Kilim

Kilim rugs are made in many places, but mostly in Persia, also known as Iran. They come with lots of color and are woven rather than hand knotted. The backs look like a mass of strands of wool going every which way, but the fronts are beautiful. There is no denying that these are hand made.  Lots of geometrics and patterns.  These are much thinner than knotted rugs.  But they look great in any room.  This one is 6'x4' and 100% wool.  It will outlive me. And by the way...I sure hope my kids like my choice of rugs!
