Large Pirot kilims are popular models in our collection. The creation of such a kilim, measuring over 1m in both width and length, takes 4-6 months. These large kilims feature external and internal borders, a central medallion, and a field – which is the largest and most beautifully decorated part of the kilim, often determining its name.
In addition to our online collection, where you can find detailed information about each kilim – from dimensions and, for collector’s items, their age, to the symbolism behind their specific patterns – you can also contact us to arrange a viewing of your desired model in person in Belgrade.
Pirot kilims are made from the wool of the indigenous Pramenka sheep breed, bringing the spirit of Pirot directly into your home.

These kilims come in various sizes and serve different purposes. Traditionally, they are classified into several groups based on their size. The following sizes, listed from smallest to largest, have been recognized for centuries:
