The Art of the Maimana Flatweave
This vintage Afghan Maimana kilim is a striking example of the rhythmic geometric patterns for which the Faryab province is world-renowned. Handwoven by skilled artisans in Northern Afghanistan, it features the characteristic diamond and stepped motifs that define the Maimana aesthetic. Crafted from 100% organic, hand-spun wool, this flatweave offers a low-profile elegance that is both lightweight and incredibly durable.
As a leader and award winner in the industry, Ariana Rugs understands that a Maimana kilim is an architectural statement. Its bold, folk-art energy and rich earthy palette make it a favorite for interior designers seeking to ground a modern room with history and character.
