Vintage Bessarabian Kilim Rug, 8.0 x 10.7 ft, 245 x 325 cm, Handwoven Wool Kilim

This vintage kilim from the Bessarabian region features a beautifully balanced composition with a warm terracotta-salmon field, bold central medallions, and richly decorative borders. Its time-softened palette includes terracotta, dusty rose, olive green, taupe, cream, muted gray, mustard yellow, and dark brown accents, giving the piece a refined yet characterful antique presence.

Handwoven from wool and dyed with traditional natural root dyes, this kilim is approximately 100 years old. The naturally aged surface, softened tones, and handmade texture reflect the charm of old regional weaving traditions, making this piece especially appealing for collectors and lovers of antique textiles.

Its generous size makes it a wonderful choice for a living room, bedroom, dining area, study, or layered bohemian interior. The strong medallion layout creates visual rhythm and structure, while the floral and tribal-inspired border details add depth, warmth, and timeless decorative appeal.

As with all handmade antique kilims, small signs of age, natural wear, and slight weaving irregularities may be present. These details are part of the rug’s authentic handmade beauty and antique identity.
