Origin

The handmade oriental carpet comes out of village weaving communities of Afghanistan, where the tribal designs have been carried down from times immemorial. Based on nomadic culture, every rug is an artwork. The weaver, his legacy, and a centuries-old art of storytelling that was inherited through his loom are all learned through the bold composition and ancestral symbolism.

Materials

This rug is woven from 100% Ghazni wool, which is known to be very firm and soft. Natural vegetable dyes are used to afford a wide-ranging palette based on gemstones. Natural oils present on the wool make the colors more gorgeous and enable the rug to mature over time, as it is used, it gets more beautiful.

Design 

With a dramatic navy background, this rug has symmetrical tribal patterns of sunbursts, rams, and shields in bursting colors of ochre, emerald, rust, cream, and pink. Its contrasting color of dusty rose and stylized symbols form an outer border, which brings luminosity and a visual depth.

Craftsmanship

Handcrafted in finesse, it is an expertly hand-knotted piece of Afghan workmanship. The weave is relatively even and close, and the elaborate designs become clear and organized. Ragged edges and hand-cut edges complete the artisan endorsement. This is a durable rug that has been designed to last long, preserving its spectacular design language.

Heritage

This is a tribal rug depicting the nomadic life of Afghanistan with ancient beliefs, symbols of protection, and local influence. By weaving one knot, the weaver attaches to a cultural heritage that has lasted centuries. With this rug, there is something more than decor; this is a woven document of identity and artistic resilience.

A bold tribal statement where deep color, ancient symbols, and handmade tradition collide.
