Kilim refers to a type of flat-woven textile or rug, traditionally produced in regions such as Turkey, the Balkans, Iran, the Caucasus, Afghanistan, and Central Asia. Unlike pile rugs, which are knotted, kilims are created using a weaving technique where the weft (horizontal threads) is tightly interlaced with the warp (vertical threads), resulting in a flat, durable, and often reversible fabric.

Kilims are known for their vibrant colors, geometric patterns, and motifs that often have symbolic meanings, such as protection, fertility, or good fortune. They are not only used as floor coverings but also as wall hangings, saddle bags, and even upholstery in some cases.

Kilim weaving is an ancient art form, and its designs can vary greatly depending on the region and cultural influences. Today, kilims are prized for their beauty, craftsmanship, and historical significance. #Pegahrug
