Originally, the kilim was made by the nomads of the south of the country and was served to protect the ground of the mosques, the tents, yurts and the litters of the camels. It is now used as well for covering the ground outdoor and indoor. Traditional kilims use patterns based on two simple geometric shapes: the triangle and the diamond.
