Handwoven Tribal Kilim Runner Rug 196 x 56 cm – Indigo Blue Flatweave Hallway Runner, Geometric Diamond Medallion, Boho Southwestern Style

This authentic handwoven flatweave runner is a bold, graphic piece with a deep indigo-blue field and a strong central “totem”/stepped-column medallion in brick red, framed in warm golden yellow. The small stacked diamonds (turquoise/sky/cream accents) add that classic tribal “eye” motif look—simple, balanced, and very interior-designer friendly.

Woven as a true kilim (no pile), it has a tight, sturdy, weft-faced structure that lays lightweight but durable—perfect for hallways, kitchens, entryways, and layering. The color shifts you see in the blue ground are natural abrash from hand-dyed yarn lots, giving it a handmade, one-of-a-kind character rather than a flat, factory look.
