A kilim is a flat-woven tapestry rug or fabric, typically hung on a wall or placed on the floor. Originating in Turkey, kilims were used as prayer rugs, but they are now used decoratively in many homes today. Kilim fabric can also be made into large throw pillows, although they won't be as squishy as the standard throw pillow due to the thickness of the material or fabric. We prefer our kilims hung on a wall, but you be the judge of your own design. We don't make the rules!!
