About the Item

Welcome the TWILIGHT and its myriad of colors in your home. Picture the evening sky getting darker by the second, as the Sun slowly descends towards the horizon. It first shows its white and blue tones followed by the apricton-pinks, ultimately torching the sky red and slowly descending into darkness. This is the story told by our kilim TWILIGHT, exclusively on 1stDibs. The TWILIGHT kilim is 100 x 200 cm (40 x 80 inches), which makes it great for hanging it both vertically and horizontally. It works well as a decorative piece in the living room above the sofa, bed’s headboard, a background for a console or as a dominant decoration at the head of the table. Saturated hues of cobalt and navy blue make it a strong accent in any interior, and natural materials give it durability for generations to come. A square meter of this fabric is a week’s worth of work of a professional weaver. The kilim was made in accordance with Bobowas traditions of weaving on a flax warp, while the weft is natural wool. Kilim designed by Piotr Niklas - Graduate of the European Academy of Arts in Warsaw, he has been designing for over a decade. He specializes in visual identity, poster design, user interface and webpage design especially for cultural institutions, video game developers and tech companies. For his Kilim DAWN he received the MUST HAVE at the Lódz Design Festival. Splot blends the finest tradition of Polish handcraft with modern and bold design. The kilim has a long and fascinating tradition in Poland. They were initially brought from the East to the nobles’ manors, with time becoming more domestic and produced locally. They captivated Modernist artists, such as Stanislaw Wyspianski or Zofia Stryjenska, who often worked in this medium. In the 1920s and ’30s, kilims decorated grand public buildings as well as private Modernist villas. After the war, they were made in many of Cepelia's (Central Folk Art and Crafts Union) workshops, both for the Polish market as well as for export, unfortunately, with time this noble craft was nearly forgotten. Kilims - stashed away in houses, stored in museums and attics, kindled my imagination. In times of rapid mass production, time in itself has become a great luxury. It takes around a week to hand weave a square meter of a kilim. In this laborious process, we acquire a product that is unique in every respect - no two tapestries are alike, just as no two loaves of bread are the same. A kilim integrates art with nature. They are not only decorative but also practical, improving acoustics and warming the interior. Kilims are Polish, although they arrived here from far away. Traditional craftsmanship for the modern home. Our dream of making modern Polish kilims led me to the weavers working for the last operating cooperative in the town of Bobowa, outside of Cracow. We knew then that together we would create something unique. So we decided to bring together the many years of tradition and experience, unprecedented skills, but most of all love for craftsmanship, with the designs and sensibility of younger artists and designers. This is how Splot was born.
