Kiliim- Modern Handcrafted Kilim

Kiliim- Modern Handcrafted Kilim Egyptian social enterprise/lifestyle brand that aims to revive & sustain the art of handwoven kilim by introducing modern designs to a time-honored technique.
(316)

Our story begins in Fowwa, a small village that sits on the western banks of the lush Nile Delta. Just a few decades ago, Fowwa used to be a hub for handmade kilim rug weaving and home to thousands of workshops, however with a declining tourism industry and the fast spread of cheaper machine made rugs, Fowwa’s main industry began to fade. With every purchase you are joining Kiliim’s initiative to put Fowwa back on the local and international map for authentic craftsmanship.

Styling cushions can completely transform a space, adding depth, comfort, and personality with just a few simple choices.

1. Pick the right number of cushions.
Pairs feel classic, but odd numbers create a more natural, modern look — try styling in threes.

2. Choose your colour scheme.
Work within your space — layer shades of one tone, or mix a few key colours with a bold accent.

3. Mix textures, sizes & patterns.
Combine shapes, fabrics, and finishes to add depth and keep the look effortless.
