Kilims and flatweaves are distinguished by their pile-less construction, created by tightly interlacing warp and weft threads to form a flat surface. Typically woven on horizontal looms, this technique produces sharp geometric patterns. Lighter and softer than traditional pile rugs, these kilims have historically served as versatile textiles—used as sofa covers, drapes, pillows, tablecloths, and wall hangings—offering both decorative appeal and insulation against cold.
