  • All of our rugs are professionally cleaned; gentle wear from age and natural irregularities are inherent features of these one-of-a-kind handwoven vintage rugs.
This intricately patterned vintage kilim runner was handwoven by the Herki tribe, a semi-nomadic Kurdish tribe residing in the mountainous regions of southeastern Turkey and northern Iraq. Typically crafted during the late 20th century, Herki kilims are renowned for their geometric motifs, bold color combinations, and precise craftsmanship. Each piece was meticulously woven from natural fibers, embodying the traditional flat-weave technique that ensures durability and portability.
The designs feature a rich array of symbols representing tribal culture and Anatolian motifs, often in the form of medallions, diamonds, and other geometric shapes. These kilim runners are ideal for hallways and narrow spaces, offering a touch of ethnic charm and artisanal quality to any interior.
Herki kilims not only serve as functional floor coverings but also as artistic expressions of tribal identity, making each rug a unique cultural artifact.

The Vintage Herki Kilim Runner features a stunning array of traditional motifs and a vibrant color palette, making it a captivating piece for any space.

  • Design:
    • The runner showcases a geometric pattern, predominantly displaying diamond shapes and interlocking forms.
    • Colors include rich reds, deep oranges, and earthy browns, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.
    • The borders are well-defined, featuring a contrasting black trim that enhances the overall visual appeal.
  • Motifs:
    • Typical motifs include stylized floral designs and geometric shapes symbolizing protection and prosperity.
    • The diamond shapes featured prominently signify strength and resilience, popular in Middle Eastern textile patterns.
    • These motifs hold cultural significance, often reflecting the heritage and craftsmanship of the region.
  • Integration with Interior Design Styles:
    • Bohemian Style: The vibrant colors and intricate patterns complement an eclectic mix of decor, adding warmth and personality.
    • Modern Minimalist: The kilim runner adds a pop of color and texture, enriching a minimalist space without overwhelming it.
    • Traditional Decor: It enhances classic interiors, harmonizing with wood furnishings and vintage accents through its timeless motifs.
    • Scandinavian Style: The earthy tones work well with the light minimalism typical of Scandinavian design, bridging warmth and functionality.
    • Rustic Farmhouse: It contributes a touch of charm to rustic spaces, blending beautifully with natural wood and soft textiles.

Thank you for making such a beautiful rug! We love it! We just need a few more little decor pieces and the room is complete! Thank you for working with such a detail-oriented person!!!

The kilim arrived yesterday and created a lot of excitement in the office. I followed your instructions and attached the kilim to a dowel rod with about 12 hoops of ribbon and hung it in my office this morning, and everyone thinks it's a beautiful addition to the office and a terrific conversation-starter. Your website and your service both exceeded my expectations, and I would be hard-pressed to think of any constructive criticism. I certainly passed your URL around the office and assured everyone that your stock was infinitely more varied than the two or three rug shops I visited in Boston and your prices more competitive. My French colleague who travels in the Middle East confirmed for everyone that one would have to travel to Turkey oneself to find a selection and price range better than yours. I think you have a very good business model.
