Ethnic Melany Turkish Handwoven Kilim Rug - 3'4'' x 4'9''

A cream field carries large stepped diamonds in green, red, and cream. Warm, graphic, and quietly bold, it is a green kilim rug with a palette that works across seasons.

Woven flat in natural wool, this geometric kilim is a handmade accent with the soul of a tribal piece and the easy versatility of a designer rug. Colored wefts are interwoven with the warps to build the large stepped diamonds on a cream field, so the pattern is the same on both sides and the rug can be used either way. Natural color variation, known as abrash, adds the vintage character that makes each kilim one of a kind.

Flat weaving is among the oldest textile arts in Anatolia, and kilims have been woven there for countless generations. Because the pattern is woven into the structure of the rug, kilims were made to last, and old pieces were handed down and reused for generations.

With its weathered color and tribal geometry, this kilim suits Southwestern, cabin, and rustic rooms, and warms a coastal or organic modern one just as easily. Place it by the front door, beside a bed, or in front of a reading chair or sink. Its natural wool sits easily with stone, oak, and linen.
