Today, the demand for kilims is very high because the rugs are easily suited for environments in a clean and minimal style. Kilims are also valued in homes due to their wide variety of use. It's not uncommon to see kilims hung on the walls as tapestries in place of paintings or used as bedspreads to give an oriental-style look to the home. One of the kilim's advantages is that it is double-faced and can be turned over when it is dirty, prolonging its use. Moldovan kilim rugs are easy to recognise thanks to the unique and characteristic rose patterns. The so-called 'rose kilim' rugs often feature pink and red roses with touches of green for the leaves, set against a dark background.
