This Vintage Egyptian Kilim, sized 6'6" x 9'9", is handwoven in the Fustat region of the Nile Delta using wool on a cotton base. Kilims and flatweave rugs are distinguished by their pile-free construction, created through the tight interlacing of warp and weft threads to form a smooth, flat surface. Typically woven on horizontal looms, this method yields precise geometric patterns. Lighter and softer than traditional pile rugs, kilims have historically been versatile—serving as sofa covers, drapes, pillows, tablecloths, and wall hangings that provide both decorative charm and insulation against harsh cold.
