Mary Kelly Kilims, established in 1995, is a specialist importer of overdyed & patchwork rugs, kilims and other flat-weave rugs, runners, saddle-bags, cushions and decorative fragments. Kilim-covered ottomans, stunning kilim and leather handbags and overnight bags are also stocked.
A chance meeting with a friendly rug dealer whilst on holiday in Turkey 21 years ago was the start of Mary Kelly Kilims.
“Bitten by the rug bug almost instantly, it was the colours and vibrancy of the flat-woven kilims that ignited my passion.
“I travel to Turkey annually, both to discover new trends and to purchase new stock. And I am always hoping to find that truly spectacular but oh so elusive special kilim — its what takes me back time and again! That and the chance to indulge my handbag!”
Now that my four sons have scattered across the globe, I have the time and the desire to help create beautiful interior spaces in your home, bach and office. A beautiful rug does make a difference, and I endeavour to make the finding of that rug a relaxed, personal and enjoyable experience.”
Each rug is personally selected, no two are ever the same. Great attention is given to quality, design, colour harmony, and of course value for money.
Overdyed and kilim rugs have many applications in our homes, from simple floor-coverings, to serious art for the wall. Settling easily in both old and new homes, they reflect everything from strict minimalism to opulent excess, proving that when you want to make an impression, it’s smart to start from the floor up.
