Anatolian kilims are much more than mere textile objects – they are woven memories, personal messages, and expressions of a vibrant culture. [...] Each kilim is restored with time, care, and respect. [...]

A kilim from Wild Heart Free Soul is not a product.
It is a legacy. A woven wish.
And perhaps a companion for your home of tomorrow.

A kilim is a long-lasting companion – if treated with love and cared for attentively, it can survive many more generations. It doesn't require elaborate care, but above all, the right kind of care.

We recommend gently vacuuming or shaking out your kilim once or twice a month to remove dust and dirt. Please do not use a rotating vacuum cleaner for this; instead, ideally use a brush attachment or a gentle handheld device. Too frequent, intensive vacuuming can eventually tire out the fibers.

Every few months, it's worth turning the kilim over and vacuuming the back as well. If you gently rotate the rug once a year, you'll ensure even wear and maintain the balance in the weave.

For basic cleaning, we recommend a professional hand wash every 3 to 5 years – with pH-neutral shampoo or olive soap, gently worked in by hand and thoroughly rinsed out. Please never put your kilim in dry cleaning or steam cleaning – this would damage the fibers. If you need assistance in choosing a suitable cleaner, we are happy to advise you. We work with experienced oriental rug specialists and are happy to pass on our special conditions.

And if an accident does happen: Dab fresh stains immediately with a clean, dry cloth. If necessary, gently dab with a little olive soap and a slightly damp cloth – without rubbing, without soaking through. For stubborn stains, please consult a specialist directly. Liquid that spreads along the fibers, especially in flat weaves, can become permanently trapped.

Dried food residues can usually be carefully scraped off or brushed out – ideally with a steady hand and without haste.
