10x14 Handwoven Brown Dotted Kilim Rug - 51694

Rows of small ivory dashes are spaced across a deep chocolate brown field, lined up almost like stitches or lines of text. Toward each long side the ivory turns into fine vertical streaks, and broad ivory bands at both ends repeat the dash motif in brown, framing the design in a clean and simple way. The dashes are not perfectly aligned, and that slight wander from row to row gives the field a quiet handmade movement.

Woven by hand in Turkey from wool reclaimed from older kilims, the rug has been rewoven into this minimal modern pattern. It measures 10'0" x 14'1" (305 x 430 cm) and is about 5 mm thick, sized for a large living room, a king bedroom or under a dining table for eight. It weighs around 25 kg (55 lbs) and, as a flatweave, lies flat enough for doors to clear it. A rug pad adds grip on tile or wood.

The dark ground and crisp ivory marks bring a grounded, graphic feel to modern, mid-century, rustic and Scandinavian rooms. It pairs nicely with light oak, linen and cream upholstery for strong contrast. In a bedroom, white bedding and a low wooden platform bed let the ivory end bands frame the space.
