Decorate your home with an enchanting silk Maimana Kilim rug.
This Kilim design originates from Maimana, an area suspected to have been settled in Paleolithic times due to the numerous cave dwellings discovered there. For ages this remote area has been a trading center, significantly contributing to the business of the great silk routes. Kilims are known as 'pileless' rugs. The design is also known as 'slitweave.' These beautiful designs are achieved by interweaving the various colors of the vertical and horizontal strands of the rug. It can be used as a hanging piece or as a floor covering. Master Worldstock weavers in India have managed to replicate this pattern, using the same traditional techniques as their Iranian counterparts. This exceptional piece features rich tones in ivory, brick, green, brown, light green and grey.
Sufficient controversy and history surrounds the origin of these kilims to keep any engaging mind interested in religion, history, geography, and other topics. This conversation piece features a rich color scheme of umber, burgundy, royal blue, salmon and beige. A one-inch trim highlights each end of the piece.
Because of the high quality of material used and the popular designs, these rugs are sold for hundreds of dollars elsewhere. Only through Overstock.com can you own this rug at such a low price. Buy one today and give your room the look of timeless elegance.

I love the feel and look - more of a throw rug. The workmanship is not perfect, it has a few flaws but overall, def worth the price.

The picture doesn't really show this beautiful piece at its best. The silk shines differently depending on your angle. It is well made. And dog hair vacumns off easily!
