More about "KILIM"
For our collection we use traditional kilim carpets that were hand-made by weaving artists decades ago. The meaningful symbols of the kilims stand for luck, protection and abundance, among other things. The look is colorful and varied, sometimes just striped. The natural colors with their color brilliance give the object its special character. The kilims are woven from natural materials such as sheep's wool, goat's hair or cotton.
