How to Style and Decorate with Flat-Weave Rugs with Ottoman Kilims as the Outer Surface
 

Flat-weave rugs with Ottoman kilims as the outer surface are one of the most distinctive features of Karavan Rugs. Ottoman kilims are flat-woven rugs that originated in the Anatolian region of Turkey during the Ottoman Empire. They are characterized by their geometric patterns, vibrant colors, and symbolic motifs that reflect the beliefs, values, and lifestyles of the weavers.

Flat-weave rugs with Ottoman kilims as the outer surface are versatile and durable, and can be used in any room of your home. Here are some style and decoration tips on how to use them:

• Use them as floor coverings to add some color, texture, and personality to your space. You can choose a rug that matches or contrasts with your existing furniture and accessories, depending on the mood you want to create. For example, you can use a bright and colorful rug to create a cheerful and lively atmosphere, or a neutral and muted rug to create a calm and relaxing atmosphere.
• Use them as wall hangings to create a focal point and a statement piece in your room. You can hang them on a plain wall or above a sofa, a bed, a fireplace, or a console table. You can also use them to cover a window or a door, or to create a partition in a large space. Hanging a rug on a wall will also help to reduce noise and improve insulation in your room.
• Use them as bedspreads, blankets, or throws to add some warmth and coziness to your bedroom. You can layer them on top of your bed, or fold them and place them at the foot of your bed. You can also use them to cover a sofa, a chair, or a bench in your living room or hallway. They will make your furniture more comfortable and inviting.

How to Style and Decorate with Stools, Runners, Benches, Tulu, Pillow Covers, and Vintage Rugs with Ottoman Kilims as the Outer Surface
 

Stools, runners, benches, tulu, pillow covers, and vintage rugs with Ottoman kilims as the outer surface are some of the other products that Karavan Rug offers. These products are made from natural materials and traditional techniques, and feature the same geometric patterns, vibrant colors, and symbolic motifs as the flat-weave rugs with Ottoman kilims as the outer surface. Here are some style and decoration tips on how to use them:
 

• Use stools, benches, and tulu as extra seating options in your living room, dining room, bedroom, or hallway. They are practical and stylish, and can be easily moved around to suit your needs. You can also use them as side tables, coffee tables, or ottomans. You can choose from different sizes, shapes, and colors, depending on your preference and space.
• Use runners to add some interest and dimension to your hallway, entryway, kitchen, or bathroom. They are long and narrow, and can fit in any space. They will also protect your floor from dirt and wear. You can choose a runner that complements or contrasts with your wall color, furniture, and accessories, depending on the look you want to achieve.
• Use pillow covers to add some comfort and charm to your sofa, bed, chair, or bench. They are soft and plush, and can be easily changed to refresh your space. You can mix and match different pillow covers with different patterns, colors, and sizes, depending on your mood and season. You can also use them to create a cozy and relaxing atmosphere in your bedroom, living room, or nursery.
• Use vintage rugs to add some character and history to your space. Vintage rugs are old and antique rugs that have been collected, sheared, overdyed, and distressed to create a new and unique look. They are usually made from wool, cotton, or silk, and feature various styles, such as Turkish, Oushak, Kazak, Moroccan, or Persian. Vintage rugs have a timeless and charming appeal, as they combine the old and the new, the traditional and the modern, the east and the west. They have a faded and worn-out look, but also a vibrant and lively feel. They can add a splash of color, texture, and personality to any room, whether it is a minimalist, bohemian, or farmhouse style.

The History and Culture Behind Our Products

Our products are not only functional and decorative items; they are also expressions of the history and culture of their makers. Each product has a story to tell, and by learning more about them, you can appreciate them even more. Here are some facts about the different types of products we offer at Karavan Rug:

• Flat-weave rugs, stools, runners, benches, tulu, pillow covers, and vintage rugs with Ottoman kilims as the outer surface: These products are made by weaving wool or cotton yarns on a loom, creating a flat and reversible surface. Kilims are a type of flat-weave rug that originated in the Anatolian region of Turkey during the Ottoman Empire. They are known for their geometric patterns, vibrant colors, and symbolic motifs that reflect the beliefs, values, and lifestyles of the weavers. Kilims were used not only as floor coverings, but also as wall hangings, curtains, bedspreads, and saddlebags. They were also exchanged as gifts, dowries, and tributes among different communities and regions. Kilims are considered as valuable artistic expressions and cultural heritage of the Turkish people.
• Tulu: These products are made by knotting wool or mohair yarns on a loom, creating a shaggy and fluffy surface. They are also known as Turkish flokati rugs, as they resemble the Greek sheepskin rugs. Tulu products originated in the Konya region of Central Anatolia, where the climate is harsh and cold. The villagers used Tulu products as floor coverings, bed clothes, blankets, or wall hangings to keep warm and cozy. Tulu products have a simple and modern look, with minimal or no patterns. They often have natural or pastel colors, such as ivory, beige, brown, or pink. They are soft and plush, and add a touch of comfort and luxury to any space.
• Vintage rugs: These products are old and antique rugs that have been collected, sheared, overdyed, and distressed to create a new and unique look. Vintage rugs are usually made from wool, cotton, or silk, and feature various styles, such as Turkish, Oushak, Kazak, Moroccan, or Persian. Vintage rugs have a timeless and charming appeal, as they combine the old and the new, the traditional and the modern, the east and the west.
