Antique Kilim Cushion

19th century
Description

One beautiful hand-crafted antique Kilim cushion, with a soft brown corduroy backing to compliment the stunning ancient colours and this cushion has a soft feather insert.  This cushion has been created using an antique Anatolian Aydin kilim from circa 1870, which was beyond restoration. The early dyes of purple aubergines, and saffron yellows are truly wonderful with hints of pale blues. As this a very old piece of kilim it does have some marks on there, due to the kilims age.  The curled latch-hook design is fabulous and full of character.

Each piece used for a cushion has been washed, but occasionally old marks are unable to be removed as this kilim is around 155 years old. There are eight cushions in total made from the same kilim - see all the images attached below.

Aydin is a region in the western area of Konya in Anatolia, located near the mediterranean and is famous for its traditional kilim weaving.  Aydin kilims were woven in varying designs from prayer kilims to large kilims woven in two halves.  A small hook motif derived from the eight-pointed star was used as an infill or border motif.  The area today is an agricultural area where weaving has sadly ceased.

Purchase this antique Kilim cushion online and we will deliver it to your home.  You are very welcome to visit our barn showroom in Crondall, Surrey to see our entire collection.  We are open Monday to Saturday 9.30-5.30pm by appointment.

FAQs

A kilim cushion is a decorative soft furnishing crafted from fragments of flat-woven tapestry rugs traditionally produced across Anatolia, Persia, and the Caucasus.

Authentic kilim cushions are flat-woven using hand-spun wool yarns on wool or cotton warps, dyed using natural vegetable or mineral colorants.

Authentic pieces feature hand-spun wool, natural dye variation known as abrash, traditional flat slit-weave construction, and minor structural irregularities characteristic of handloom production.

A kilim cushion provides visual texture and geometric interest when paired with plain neutral linen sofas, structured leather armchairs, or modern minimalist bedding.

Spot clean minor marks using a damp cloth and mild wool detergent, keep away from prolonged direct sunlight to limit fading, and use professional dry cleaning when thorough washing is required.
