Handwoven in wool on a wool foundation, the flat-weave surface carries stripes of blue, green, red, brown, and gray — each band hand-dyed with organic materials that produce the soft tonal shifts known as abrash. These natural color variations, subtly different from one end of the runner to the other, are a hallmark of authentic handmade kilims and a quality no machine-woven textile can replicate. Its generous length makes it an ideal runner for long hallways, dining rooms, or staircases.

The kilim has a rough wool texture and feel. The flat-weave construction also means it is lightweight and fully reversible, offering two tonal variations — one softened by natural light over the years, the other retaining deeper, richer hues.
