During collecting information regarding “kilims” in Chaharmahal-va-Bakhtiari province, it was understood that whatever we recognize under the general term of “Khorjin” can be divided into three categories: small, normal and big ones as described below. (1) Small Khorjins (50×25 cm) which are weaved in both parts of province, i.e. Chaharmahal & also Bakhtiari. They are used for keeping expensive things and objects, documents and also women personal things. (2) Normal Khorjins (100×50 cm) which are weaved for caring foods, things and usual tools which are related to person's job. These Khorjins are produced by Chaharmahalies and Ghashghaies. (3) Big Khorjins (150×100 cm) which are weaved to displace large amount of loads, dresses and light beds. Just Bakhtiari people produce them. Most of these hand-woven items are produced with simple Kilim method, but for weaving some of them, people use pile techniques and some special and important weaving methods special to this province and known as “Rendi” and “Soozani”. From viewpoint of designing, these beautiful products have some designs which are originated from the beliefs and customs of these people or are produced by these tact weavers in the case of being impressed by surrounding environment, or by using geometrical drawings. Apart form ownership issue, safe-keeping and producing something that meet human's needs, the most important thing regarding them is their beautiful coloring schemes and wonderful drawings which delights their viewers.
