Quality
Woven from Welayati Kurk wool—a premium, long-staple fiber with natural lanolin—this rug offers a buttery hand and high resilience underfoot. The pattern’s clarity comes from a meticulous 133 KPSI (knots per square inch), balancing fine detail with everyday durability. Expect excellent recovery from furniture marks, graceful aging, and color that develops a richer patina over time. Edges are carefully finished and fringes are hand-secured to meet luxury-grade standards.
Origin & Tradition
Hand-knotted in Maymana, Afghanistan, this piece continues a Turkmen weaving lineage where disciplined geometry meets lyrical symbolism.

Each knot is placed by artisans whose skills are passed through generations, resulting in a singular rug that honors tradition while elevating contemporary interiors.
