Silk Road Series 100% Silk Handwoven Kilim – Green (Green)
The Silk Road Series Handwoven Kilim is a fine, elegant collection that brings the natural luster of silk to the traditional kilim form with its 100% silk weave. Its pile-free flatweave construction and weight of 2000 g/m² offer a lightweight yet substantial drape; the silk fibers’ light-changing sheen adds depth to the surface. Each handwoven kilim comes from the artisan’s loom with its own distinctive character. This variant features a nature-inspired shade of green; the shimmer of silk brings a vibrant, serene natural touch to your space.
What Is Silk?
Silk is a natural protein fiber obtained from the cocoon of the silkworm; it is considered one of the finest and strongest natural fibers in nature. Its distinctive triangular cross-section refracts light like a prism, giving silk a natural luster and a depth of tone that shifts with the light, unlike any other fiber. The 100% silk used in the Silk Road Series gives the kilim a silky fluidity, an elegant shimmer, and a cool, smooth feel.
What Is a Kilim (Flatweave)?
A kilim is a traditional floor covering made using a pile-free flatweave technique. Because it has no pile, it is thin, fits easily under doors, and is easy to lay out and move. Both sides can be used, making the kilim practical and long-lasting. In the Silk Road Series, this traditional form is woven with 100% silk yarn, creating an elegant interpretation suited to contemporary spaces.
Silk Road and the Spirit of the Silk Road
The series takes its name from the historic Silk Road, which connected East and West. For centuries, caravans carried silk, patterns, and craftsmanship along this route to Anatolia; the kilim is one of the most enduring legacies of this journey. By bringing this heritage together with a 100% silk weave, the Silk Road Series adds both the warmth of history and modern simplicity to living spaces.

How Do You Clean a Silk Kilim?
Silk kilims from the Silk Road Series should only be cleaned by professional rug-cleaning companies. Silk fibers are sensitive to water, moisture, and chemicals; washing or wet cleaning at home is not recommended. For everyday care, use a low-suction vacuum cleaner and gently blot stains with a slightly damp cloth without delay to preserve the kilim’s luster and texture for years to come.

Protect Its Elegance
To preserve the original splendor and silky texture of Carpetdocia’s handwoven creations made with natural fibers—which add value to your living space—for generations, a careful care routine is essential.
Immediate Action and Liquid Spills
When a liquid spills, timing is critical. Using a clean, slightly damp cloth, blot the liquid gently from the surface without rubbing. Always work in the direction of the rug’s pile (the natural direction in which the fibers lie). Rubbing can damage the shape of delicate fibers such as TENCEL™ and viscose. If in doubt, stop immediately.
Routine Care and Light Balance
For your weekly cleaning routine, always use a vacuum cleaner with low suction. High-powered upright vacuums and stiff brushes can damage the natural structure of handwoven yarns. To balance how natural yarns react to light and prevent uneven changes in color (fading), we recommend rotating your rug every 2 to 6 months.
Expert Care (Professional Cleaning)
Fine textures such as handwoven fibers, TENCEL™, viscose, and New Zealand wool should not come into contact with household chemical cleaners. These products can irreversibly damage the rug’s silky sheen and structural integrity. For a thorough clean, seek help only from professional rug care centers specializing in natural fibers.
