Ethnic India Turkish Handwoven Kilim Runner - 2'9'' x 9'8''

A multicolor lattice of stepped diamonds in red, navy, and green covers a pale field in a loose repeat. Designer-friendly and endlessly layerable, it is a tribal kilim runner for eclectic, global, and mid-century modern rooms.

Hand-woven on a traditional loom from hand-spun wool and colored with natural vegetable dyes, this kilim rug follows the flat-weave tradition, with bold diamonds, zigzags, and tribal medallions. Its tightly beaten wefts lock the multicolor lattice of stepped diamonds in place and give the rug the durability kilims are known for. Designers often use a kilim to add pattern and warmth to a neutral room, or to layer over jute and sisal for a collected, eclectic look.

The kilim is one of the oldest forms of rug weaving, with roots in Anatolia and across the Near East that stretch back thousands of years. The symmetrical layouts and bold stepped forms seen today follow the same tribal vocabulary that nomadic weavers used for tent floors and walls.

Refined yet rustic, this kilim runner rug adds the character of hand woven tribal weaving to any long space. Use it as a hallway runner rug, a kitchen runner, or an entryway runner that welcomes guests. Its geometric patterns and natural palette complement Southwestern, traditional, and modern decor alike.
