Origin
Hand-knotted by artisans in Afghanistan, this Mumlook rug contains the essence of the artistic practices of Central Asian arts. Its medallion design and active background honour the antique tribal carpets. All the figures have meaning and signify harmony, power, and persistence of a pattern that has travelled across generations.
Materials
The rug is made using hand-spun Ghazni wool and dyes with natural pigments of 100 percent plant origin, which gives it oils, resiliency, and richness. The colors are derived from madder root and walnut husk as well as indigo, which provided the pattern with an earthy sparkle. No synthetics, no chemicals, it is environmentally friendly and long-lasting.
Design
The medallion has eight lobes in the middle, accompanied by two octagons bordered with crafted tile design and rosettes. The field around is exploding with expressive caricature-like abstraction in crimson, midnight blue, ochre and turquoise brushstrokes. The outcome is a tamed anarchy- decorative geometry graduating into amorphous texture.
Craftsmanship
The rug has a remarkable number of knots and both sides show very careful work. The fringes are hand-braided and edges strengthened to be stable. Its consistency of weave, crispness of design, speaks of competence, the equilibrium between artisan work and edificational perfection of beauty.
Heritage
The tradition of Mumlook is in honoring the telling of the stories through symbol and harmony. Medallions represent the spiritual centres of exhortation; bright spectrums prepare the clock rotations and the natural geographical plants. This is not only a rug, a work of art on the floor, but a cultural heritage, an object with individuality, a source of pride.
An expressive fusion of tradition and texture—this Mumlook rug translates history into contemporary artistry.
