A rich history
Kilims and carpet stripes have a rich history, rooted in traditional textile production across various regions, originating in Central Asia, with some of the oldest known examples dating back to the 4th or 5th century CE, whilst striped patterns in textiles have been found in ancient civilizations, including Egypt and Persia.
These textiles often carry symbolic meaning, with patterns representing aspects of daily life, beliefs, and tribal identity. Techniques for kilim production have spread throughout the Middle East, North Africa, the Balkans, and parts of Europe, each region developing its own distinct styles and motifs.
Kilims and Carpet Stripes in Interior Design
Today, kilims are appreciated worldwide for their artistic value and are used in both traditional and contemporary interior design.
At Andrew Martin we've long championed the use of these vibrant, intricate designs. We've been on a global quest for the discovery lasting 45 years, uncovering exciting textiles and handcrafted cloths to share with our customers.
We use them to upholster furniture, with popular examples being our Regal and Victoria chairs, Constantine ottoman and Sue sofa, and of course we have a plethora of beautiful scatter cushions that add a bohemian or eclectic touch to spaces.

Use these kilims and carpet stripes to inspire entire room colour schemes, add texture and visual interest to more formal schemes, or add a global or travelled feel to living spaces. We hope you love them as much as we do!
