This vintage Egyptian kilim beautifully captures a traditional village scene woven in warm earthy tones of brown, beige, and cream. The tapestry depicts a tranquil riverside setting featuring stylized boats with sails, palm trees, and villagers alongside grazing animals such as cows and a camel. The background showcases clustered buildings with domed roofs, representing a typical Egyptian village landscape. The intricate weaving technique and muted color palette reflect the rich cultural heritage and artisanal craftsmanship of Egyptian textile traditions. This kilim serves as both a decorative art piece and a narrative tapestry telling stories of rural life in Egypt.

Authentic vintage and antique Egyptian kilims are handwoven 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 these rugs' handmade and preloved nature, slight imperfections and flaws are not considered defects.

Our kilims are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life.

It’s 1990 all over again!

In the early 1990’s, my wife I were obsessed with hand woven, vegetable dyed Turkish carpets from Azeri/Woven Legends. We spent so much time at ABC Carpet & Home in NYC, we became good friends with the head rug buyer!! We haven’t purchased a rug in years, but I found a wonderful Woven Legends carpet at Shopvintagerugs and bought myself an early birthday present. The rug was shipped from Pakistan on Monday, made its way to Dubai, then Boston, Memphis and finally arrived to us today. I couldn’t be happier!
