This vintage Egyptian Kilim, measuring 6'6" x 9'7", is handwoven with wool on a cotton foundation in the Fustat region of the Nile Delta. Kilims and flat weaves are characterized by their pile-less construction, achieved by tightly interlacing warp and weft threads to create a smooth, flat surface. Typically produced on horizontal looms, this method results in precise geometric patterns. Lighter and softer than traditional pile rugs, these kilims serve multiple purposes, including use as sofa covers, drapes, pillows, tablecloths, and wall hangings, offering both decorative value and insulation.
