This vintage Hungarian kilim is a handwoven wool flatweave that exemplifies the bold and colourful folk-art traditions of Central Europe. The design is arranged in horizontal bands filled with repeating diamond and star motifs in rich earthy tones: rust red, mustard yellow, indigo blue, forest green, ivory, and black, creating a vibrant yet harmonious rhythm across the textile. The piece is further distinguished by its long, multicoloured fringes on the sides and ends, adding movement and rustic charm. The geometric motifs, often symbolic in Hungarian weaving, reflect themes of protection, fertility, and continuity. Made entirely of natural wool, the kilim is lightweight yet durable, with a coarse, authentic texture that emphasises its handwoven character. Both decorative and functional, this kilim serves equally well as a rug, wall hanging, or cultural statement piece, embodying the warmth and artistry of Hungarian village craftsmanship.
I have purchased three rugs through shop vintage rugs now, and every time they have exceeded expectations.
Love this. It’s perfect!
I love this rug. It arrived in a very timely manner. I’ve bought several rugs from Shopvintage and I’ve never been disapointed
Attractive purchase but colors more muted than expected. Excellent service.
The rug is lovely!
