This beautiful vintage woollen African Lesotho mohair kilim is a striking handwoven textile that reflects both warmth and elegance. Crafted with soft mohair and wool, it features a series of bold geometric diamond motifs running vertically across a cream ground. The design combines earthy tones of brown, mauve, and soft grey, creating a rhythmic, almost architectural pattern that feels both traditional and modern.
The mohair fibres add a gentle sheen and luxurious texture, enhancing the natural beauty of the weave while ensuring durability. Finished with fringed edges, this kilim is both decorative and practical, making it an exceptional piece for use as a floor covering, wall hanging, or collector's textile. It beautifully embodies the artistry and heritage of Lesotho weaving traditions, bringing character and cultural depth to any interior.
Authentic vintage and antique African kilims are hand-woven with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and one of a kind.
Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to the harsh and preloved nature of these rugs, slight imperfections and flaws are not considered defects.
Our kilims are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life. Additionally, we recommend using a rug pad with a grippy back to keep your kilim in place and to smooth out any wrinkles that may have occurred during shipping. Using a rug pad will also safeguard your kilim from deterioration and, therefore, extend the life of your kilim rug.
Our kilims are professionally cleaned.
