Silk Road Series 100% Silk Handwoven Flatweave Rug – Aqua
The Silk Road Series Handwoven Flatweave Rug is a refined, delicate collection that brings the natural luster of silk to the traditional flatweave form with its 100% silk construction. Its pile-free flatweave structure and 2000 g/m² density provide a lightweight yet substantial drape, while the silk fiber’s light-reactive sheen adds depth to the surface. Each handwoven rug emerges from the artisan’s loom with its own unique character. This variant features a refreshing aqua tone, adding a cool, bright atmosphere to the space with the shimmer of silk.
What Is Silk?
Silk is a natural protein fiber obtained from the cocoon of the silkworm and is considered one of the finest and strongest natural fibers in nature. Its distinctive triangular cross-section refracts light like a prism, giving silk a natural sheen and a depth of tone that changes with the light—qualities found in no other fiber. The use of 100% silk in the Silk Road Series gives the rug a silky fluidity, an elegant shimmer, and a cool, smooth feel.
What Is a Kilim (Flatweave)?
A kilim is a traditional type of rug made using a pile-free flatweave technique. Because it has no pile, it is thin, passes easily under doors, and is simple to lay and move. Both sides can be used, making the kilim both practical and durable. In the Silk Road Series, this traditional form is woven with 100% silk yarn, giving it an elegant interpretation suited to contemporary interiors.
Silk Road and the Spirit of the Silk Road
The collection takes its name from the historic Silk Road, which connected East and West. For centuries, caravans carried silk, patterns, and craftsmanship to Anatolia along this route; the kilim is one of the most enduring legacies of that journey. By bringing this heritage together with a 100% silk texture, the Silk Road Series adds both the warmth of history and a modern simplicity to living spaces.

How Should a Silk Kilim Be Cleaned?
Silk kilims from the Silk Road Series should only be cleaned by professional rug-cleaning companies. Silk fibers are sensitive to water, moisture, and chemicals; washing or wet cleaning at home is not recommended. For daily care, use a vacuum cleaner with low suction and gently blot spills with a slightly damp cloth without delay to help preserve the kilim’s luster and texture for a long time.

Protect Your Rug’s Elegance
A careful care routine should be adopted to preserve the original splendor and silky texture of Carpetdocia’s handwoven, natural-fiber creations—pieces that add value to your living space—for generations to come.
Immediate Action and Liquid Spills
When a liquid is spilled, timing is the most critical factor. Using a clean, slightly damp cloth, remove the liquid from the surface by gently blotting only—never rub. Always work in the direction of the rug’s pile (the natural direction in which the fibers lie). Rubbing can damage the structure of delicate fibers such as TENCEL™ and viscose. If in doubt, stop immediately.
Routine Care and Light Balance
For your weekly cleaning routine, always use vacuum cleaners with low suction power. High-powered upright vacuums and stiff brushes can damage the natural structure of handwoven yarns. To balance the natural fibers’ reaction to light and prevent uneven color changes (fading), we recommend changing the direction of your rug every 2 to 6 months.
Expert Care (Professional Cleaning)
Delicate materials such as handwoven fibers, TENCEL™, viscose, and New Zealand wool should not come into contact with household chemical cleaners. These products can irreversibly damage the rug’s silky sheen and structural integrity. For deep cleaning, seek assistance only from professional rug-care centers specializing in natural fibers.
