Wool
Wool is a natural textile fibre and one of the most sought after materials for rug making. Wool rugs are highly durable and perfectly capable of resisting wear and tear of every day use. Wool has a naturally dirt-repelling effect and is easy to keep clean. It is also flame resistant and characteristically retains it’s shape so that the pile of the rug always rises.

| Manufacturing |
Woven by hand
Handwoven rugs are created by interlocking warp and weft, creating a relatively thin rug without pile.

Information about Kilim Maimane carpet from Afghanistan.
The kilim is a flat woven carpet that is woven by nomads in the south of Persia. They use a special technique when weaving, giving the carpet a thinner and cover-like quality. The Kelims are also made faster than an ordinary Oriental carpet. Their patterns are traditional, stair-like and the carpet is suitable for hanging on walls.
