This refers to the nomadic people of the Sahara, Sinai and Arabian deserts. Kelima’s rugs come straight from the Western Egyptian desert and have been specially selected to introduce the rich history of Egyptian culture to the Western world. Bring the beauty of Egypt into your home!

Extend rug life

The Bedouin rug provides years of beauty in your home. To keep the carpet beautiful for as long as possible, we recommend purchasing an underlay. This ensures that the rug always stays in place. So don’t worry about sliding in the hall, living room or office. In addition, it offers extra sound insulation and the carpet will wear less quickly. The rug can be used on both sides. Turn the carpet every six months to prolong its life.

Cleaning a 100% Egyptian wool rug

The rugs from Kelima are all woven by hand and are therefore naturally resistant to dirt. However, it is important to clean the rug regularly to maintain its beautiful appearance. Regularly use the vacuum cleaner or gently shake the carpet back and forth so that the dirt falls out. Is there a stain on the Kilim rug? You can remove this by gently dabbing with a damp cloth. For thorough cleaning, take the rug to the dry cleaner.

Cleaning Tips:

Hand wash in cold water to preserve the beautiful colours.
Do not put the rug in the dryer, but hang it up to dry.
Never use bleach or stain remover.
Remove stains as soon as possible with a cloth and possibly soapy water.
For the best cleaning, we recommend taking the rug to the dry cleaner.
