How a Maimana kilim is made
Weavers in Maimana pass weft threads over and under the warp by hand, in wool, until the pattern builds. There is no pile to knot or tuft, so the design reads the same on the back. We buy direct from the artisan and ship direct to you.

What is a kilim runner?
A kilim runner is a long, narrow flatweave. With no pile to flatten, it takes shoes and daily walking without matting down. Ours are woven by hand in wool in Maimana, Afghanistan.
Measure the hall first
Measure the length of the space, then choose a runner that leaves a little bare floor at each end so it sits square.
