10x13 Handwoven Blue Striped Kilim Rug - 51740

Even horizontal stripes of denim blue and soft ivory alternate from one end of this flatweave to the other. The blue bands carry small shifts in tone, and the ivory bands show a light woven texture, so the simple pattern feels relaxed rather than rigid. The blue stripes are roughly the same width as the ivory ones, giving a balanced, nautical look, and a thin blue line frames the long edges, which tidies the composition without adding a formal border.

The rug was handwoven in Turkey from wool reclaimed from older kilims and rewoven into this classic stripe. At 10'0" x 13'5" (305 x 410 cm) and about 5 mm thick, it is a flat, practical rug for a large living room, a dining room seating eight or a king bedroom. It weighs about 24 kg (53 lbs). Vacuum it on a bare-floor or suction-only setting, and use a thin pad underneath if it sits on polished wood.

It fits naturally into coastal, Scandinavian, modern farmhouse and casual contemporary homes, and it pairs well with white upholstery, rattan and light oak. Navy cushions or a striped throw pick up its colors without competing with it. Running the stripes across a narrow room can make the space feel wider. Clean, fresh and easy to live with in a busy household.
