The kilim Dawn is a chameleon—seemingly the same, it’s reinvented itself yet again. The latest edition of this icon of contemporary design, now featuring its designer Piotr Niklas’ original color scheme, delights with its bold combination of saturated and pastel tones. The entire piece was woven by hand at the Bobowa workshops using yarn that we also manufacture manually, thanks to which the texture of the kilim is rich and the colors are vivid and change hue depending on the lighting. Dawn found recognition from the jury of the Łodź Design Festival winning the Must Have award, but most importantly it won the hearts of Splot’s clients becoming one of our most desired kilims.
The art of kilim weaving has long been an integral part of Polish tradition and aesthetics. In contrast to many regions worldwide, where kilim design remains rooted in conventional, repetitive patterns, Poland has embraced this form of textile as a conduit for modernity since the early 1900s, serving as a medium for contemporary design and artistic expression.
Splot’s kilims are handcrafted in collaboration with two weaving centers that boast a unique heritage. The tradition of weaving in Bobowa, located near Kraków, dates back over 70 years.
In Bobowa, we craft our contemporary, expressive kilims with a dense, refined texture, woven on a linen warp. The wool we use is hand-spun, and its soft bouclé texture gives the kilims a subtle irregularity and depth, building their organic, unique character.
