Cicim rug - This construction technique produces a flat-weave rug that is thick, strong and exceptionally durable. They are distinguishable by the fact that the pattern is visible only from one side- with the reverse often having threads of yarn 2 to 4 cm long left hanging on the back.
The cicim rugs are heavy and stiff and make a great floor rug. They are found in bag faces, animal covers and have been used as curtains and bed covers. Designs are almost always bold and colorful and employ many of the design patterns of the knotted Caucasian rugs.
Cicims are excellent examples of Tribal weaving, the dyes are most likely naturally derived and the wool hand-spun, resulting in rich earthy colours with subtle variations.
Cicim rugs don't have a pile. Their designs are inspired from the natural colors of landscape,they are durable and very decorative.
