Authentic vintage Afghan Maimana Kilim, skillfully handcrafted with wool-on-wool construction by Northern Afghanistan's Maimana tribal artisans. This 5'1" x 6'4" textile exemplifies the distinctive kilim tradition—characterized by its pileless structure created through the precise interlacing of warp and weft threads. Typically produced on horizontal looms, this technique yields sharp, defined geometric patterns. These lightweight, supple textiles served multiple functions beyond floor coverings, including upholstery, drapery, cushions, tablecloths, decorative wall hangings, and thermal insulation against harsh climates.
