KILIM

Knots, looms, amulets, prayers, food, totems and clans.

Kilim is a term of Persian origin and means “spread out”. It is used for all the pileless flat textile carpets obtained by weaving together the threads of the warp and the weft.
The oldest kilim dates back to the 4th century BC. Of nomadic origin, it was found in the Khotan oasis in eastern Turkestan.
