Kelim pillows
The Kelim cushion is an out-and-out favorite among anyone who loves a piece of handmade craftsmanship, but likes to keep the color palette calm. The kelim pillows are handmade especially for The Souks. We took inspiration from the classic Beni Ouarain rug with its graphic shapes. These carpets are named after the Berber village of the same name in the middle of the Atlas Mountains. Since the Beni Ouarain carpet is a favorite at The Souks ánd we love pillows, it was a no brainer that these two facets should be combined into one beautiful product.
“We love the minimalist look of the Kilim cushion”
CRAFTSMANSHIP WITH A CALM COLOR PALETTE
The kilim Beni Ouarain pillow
This new graphic style is for anyone who would like to bring a piece of Morocco into their home, but is not so into bold colours. Originally from the Eastern world, the Kilim originated in Turkey. This style is now also made in our beloved Morocco, hand-woven on the traditional loom. Cushions and poufs are also made from these rugs. The kilim fabric is one without a pile, in solid colours or with handsome geometric shapes. We are in love with the geometric patterns and are very happy to have been able to cast it in cushion form now!
Frequently asked questions
Is your question not listed? Feel free to contact us!
These pillows are new. For this design, we have special fabrics woven, which are then cut into pieces to make pillows. Given the continuous pattern, each pillow is unique yet super matchy!
The back of these pillows is made of natural white cotton.
Not exactly. Because we cut the pillows from a large piece of fabric, the pattern may be slightly different from the photo (see the first question in this thread).
The fabric of the Kelim cushion lends itself well to this. Please let us know your wishes via info@thesouks.com. Please take into account that custom orders take a long time to deliver, because we will work for you from design to production and delivery.
Yes, these pillows come filled.
Preferably not. You can use a cloth to wipe off any stains, but because these pillows are made from very delicate fabrics we do not recommend washing them. Knocking them out usually works sufficiently!
