Karapınar kilims are among the oldest woven textiles in Central Anatolia.
The Karapınar region lies some 100 km east of Konya, in the heart of Central Anatolia.
It is a stunning region with vast plateaus at an altitude of around 1,000 metres; steppe landscapes, almost lunar in places, and numerous volcanic cones, a reminder of ancient volcanic activity.
This austerity is reflected in the weaves: they are rarely exuberant, but exude great power.
The wool used is fine and silky.
The colour palette is cheerful and full of contrast. And sometimes, they are simply the natural colour of the wool.

Every day: you can vacuum, but not at minimum power. Avoid vacuum cleaners with rotating brushes.
Liquid spills: mop up as much liquid as possible and rub gently with a damp cloth.
Grease stains: soak up as much grease as possible with paper towels or terre de Sommières.
Accidents involving animals: in this case, it's very important to act quickly, as animals release acids that will damage wool. Treat your kilim following the same advice as for spilled liquids.
For a more thorough cleaning: it may be that the stains have not been completely treated, or that over the years, despite regular maintenance, dust has settled in and a grey veil has set in. In such cases, it's time to turn to a professional.
That's why we offer a cleaning service, carried out by a company specialized in manual and wet carpet cleaning.
