FAQs

Syrian kilims from the late 19th century reflect the rich textile traditions of the Levant, featuring distinct geometric motifs and flatweave techniques distinct from Persian or Anatolian counterparts.

Authentic pieces are typically handwoven from natural wool yarns, often employing slit-weave flatweave construction without a pile, using organic and natural plant-based dyes.

Authenticity is identified through traditional natural dye oxidisation, hand-spun wool irregularities, specific regional geometric iconography, and genuine age-related wear on the flatweave structure.

These textiles can be displayed as floor coverings in low-traffic areas or mounted on walls as textile art to protect the fibres while adding warmth and geometric interest to a contemporary room.

Preservation requires gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional specialist cleaning only, keeping out of direct sunlight to prevent fading, and using a breathable rug underlay.
