REZAS MOLDOVIA RUGS
Rose Kelim Covers
Rose Kelim covers are made from pieces of Rose Kelim rugs woven in Moldova
that are often up to 70 years old. The rugs are often damaged beyond repair, but
have large sections that are still intact and in beautiful condition. The sections are
cut into smaller pieces and used for our covers. The Rose Kelims are relatively rare
and are hard to get hold of. They are easily identifiable thanks to their colourful
flower motifs that feature red and pink roses with green leaves and vines on dark
backgrounds.
