REZAS KELIM RUGS
Kelim Kashghai
Kelim Kashghai is a flat woven rug that is woven by nomads in the south parts of
the Orient. The tribes use a special technique when weaving, giving the rug a thinner and flat surface with no pile. They are incredibly robust, durable and known for
looking great for decades. As there is no top or bottom, both sides can be used
– further prolonging the colours and lifespan of the rug. The colours and materials
are all-natural and follow many hundreds of years of tradition.
Kelims are produced in several regions and under many names, but the most popular Kelim types are Seneh, Sumak, Fars, and Kelim Kashghai.
