Vintage Oltenian Kilim Rug – Handwoven Wool, Romania, 220 x 120 cm
No two pieces are alike — each one carries the hand of the person who made it.
A beautiful vintage Romanian kilim, handwoven in Oltenia, in the south of Romania, roughly 40 years ago. This is a traditional Oltenian flatweave, representative of the region and a lovely medium-sized piece.
Woven in wool on a cotton warp, the rug features a soft, dusty blue field filled with rows of stylized leaf, flowers and wheat-like motifs in yellow, red, coral, cream and black, punctuated by five diamond medallions. A warm caramel inner border and a bold black outer border with colorful star-shaped motifs frame the design. The result is a charming blend of geometric and floral patterns.
The colors have a gentle, slightly dusty patina that gives the rug its authentic vintage character, and they are absolutely gorgeous in person.

The rug is full of flowers : daffodils, tulips, roses, ears of wheat. The more you look the more you see.The carriage was easy , after all it came a long way. The owner was very helpful and kept me informed.
This rug is very special. Probably 60s it’s wool and made in narrow strips. It’s faded over the years ..but still bright. Anyone who loves colour should consider looking towards Eastern Europe, where you can find something different.
Very nice product, helpful and open minded seller. Warmly recomended “MadewithloveRO” !
My beautiful carpet arrived perfectly packed and very quickly. I love it and am not wrong. Thank you

Very beautiful rug, the central piece of our home now on the Mediteranean coast in France! We are very lucky to have it and very happy with our purchase. Everything went smootly, good communication with the seller, I highly recommend them! We will defintely buy again from them.
They are so well done, and I don't mean just the quality but the creativity of the pieces. Spectacular!
It makes you want to be at home, and after these past few months of being home 100% of the time, it really boosts creativity and puts everyone in a good mood!
Beautiful handmade piece! The wool is incredibly soft and the colors are absolutely stunning, it fits perfectly in our neutral-toned space. Communication and delivery were both smooth and hassle-free, and the item is even more beautiful in person; the photos simply don’t do it justice. We even received a lovely little gift with our purchase. I can’t recommend it highly enough!
