Product description
Hand-woven Jajim Kilim Fars 186x160 No: 2579, Kilim and Persian rugs are all terms associated with traditional textile art and each have their own characteristics and cultural roots. Let me break them down for you:
1. jajim (jajim rugs)
- Origin: Jajims are traditionally woven in parts of Iran and other regions influenced by Persian culture.
- Material: Usually made of wool, sometimes in combination with silk or cotton.
- Weaving technique: Similar to kilims, they are woven using a flat weaving technique. However, they are often lighter and more flexible.
- Pattern: They are characterized by bold, colourful, striped patterns. They are often reversible and can be used as rugs, blankets or wall hangings.
- Uses: As they are known for their portability, they are often used by nomadic communities.
2. kilim (kilim)
- Origin: Kilim carpets (or kilim rugs) are found throughout the Middle East, Central Asia and the Caucasus, including Persia (modern-day Iran).
- Material: Made of wool, often dyed with natural fabrics.
- Knotting technique: A flat weaving technique that produces a thin, pile-less surface. The patterns are created by interweaving warp and weft threads.
- Pattern: Often with geometric patterns, such as diamonds, zigzags and other symmetrical motifs.
