The Sustainable Choice

Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

FAQs

Sharkoy kilims are flatweave textiles traditionally produced in the Thrace region of modern-day Turkey and the Balkans. Characterised by their light weight, fine weave, and intricate geometric patterns, these textiles historically served both functional and decorative purposes in regional homes.

Traditional kilims are hand-woven using hand-spun wool for both the warp and weft. They employ a slit-weave technique, where colour changes create deliberate vertical slits along the edges of geometric motifs.

Authentic pieces display subtle colour variations, known as abrash, resulting from hand-dyed wool batches. Examination of the reverse side should reveal hand-tied knots or smooth slit-weave construction rather than synthetic backing or machine stitching.

Flatweave kilims are frequently layered over plain neutral carpets or hard wood flooring to add colour and texture. Their flat profile also makes them suitable for hanging as wall tapestries or placement in high-footfall corridors.

Regular maintenance requires gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush attachment to prevent fiber damage. Professional specialist cleaning is advised for stain removal, and direct exposure to intense sunlight should be minimized to avoid dye fading.
