Zig Zag Kilim Runner – Handwoven Rug
The Zig Zag Kilim is spun from raw wool and has been finely handwoven in the city of Mazar in Afghanistan, combining contemporary design with age-old techniques.
Part of what makes Afghanistan’s kilims so special is the wool they are made from. Each strand of wool is individually spun by hand, giving the kilims great character. Colours are obtained from natural dyes made by crushing dried flowers and plants into fine powders, giving the kilims beautiful hues that develop a warm patina over time.
