Navajo-design Kilim rug featuring two large grey and charcoal stepped crosses and a central diamond on a vibrant terracotta field with serrated zig-zag borders, SKU 66814, size 6′2″ × 8′11″.
This Kilim is a vibrant celebration of tribal geometry, using bold scale and saturated color to create a definitive focal point for the home. The composition is anchored by two large, multi-layered stepped crosses—traditional symbols of the four directions—and a central concentric diamond. These motifs are framed by high-energy "lightning" zig-zag borders that lead the eye through the length of the textile, all set against a rich, earthy terracotta field.
Hand-woven from 100% premium wool, the rug features the tight, flat-weave construction that makes Kilims exceptionally durable and reversible. Measuring 6′2″ × 8′11″, it offers the ideal proportions to ground a mid-sized living area or bring warmth to a large dining room. The palette balances the warmth of the burnt-orange field with grounding charcoal, slate grey, and crisp ivory accents.

Styling & Placement Tips
This Kilim is designed to hold its own in rooms with high ceilings and substantial furniture. The warm terracotta field pairs beautifully with cognac leather, reclaimed wood, and stone textures. It is an excellent choice for a dining room because the flat-weave allows chairs to slide effortlessly without catching. In a more modern setting, use it to add a layer of soulful, hand-crafted history to a space dominated by glass and steel.
Care
Vacuum regularly with a suction-only attachment; do not use a beater bar. Because Kilims are reversible, we recommend flipping and rotating the rug every six months to ensure even wear. For small spills, blot immediately with a dry cloth. Professional cleaning is recommended for deep maintenance. Always use a high-quality rug pad to provide grip and extra cushioning.

The Spirit of the Design
This design draws inspiration from the "cross-in-diamond" patterns often seen in early 20th-century Southwest weaving. These motifs were believed by many to represent the harmony between the physical and spiritual worlds. By rendering them in a durable flat-weave Kilim, we bring this timeless symbolic language into the modern, active home.
