My kilims are wonderful! Shipping to Tokyo was quite rapid.I'd wondered whether ordering a semi-antique over the net all the way from Turkey was wise, but your explanation of its condition and the photo you sent me were very accurate. It's beautiful :) Thanks...

We received our Kilim and it was absolutely stunning. We love it. What a beautiful work of art. I will cherish this rug forever. Excellent communication and service and I would recommend Kilim.com to anyone interested in quality and great service. I hope someday I will be able to purchase another kilim from you.

The kilims are very high quality and gorgeous. We are doing some remodeling in our house and faux painting the walls using reds and golds and the colors in the kilims match perfectly. I took one of them to my office one day and now everyone wants one or two! Thanks so much for helping me with the colors. The folks at Kilim.com are not only very professional, but friendly as well. You may be hearing from me again soon.

Thank you so much for my beautiful Turkish Kilim! I am so happy with it. It is gorgeous ! It reminded me of my time in Istanbul in 2015. The Turkish people were so hospitable and kind. I will forever cherish my time there. Thank you for my beautiful carpet. It will be in my family home for years to come and hopefully handed down as a cherished family heirloom.
