Origin & Tradition
This runner was hand-knotted in Maymana, Afghanistan, a region known for producing distinctive handmade rugs with careful craftsmanship and rich weaving heritage. While the design is inspired by the elegance of Persian Nain rugs, the piece carries the soul of Afghan artistry—made by hand, one knot at a time, with character that cannot be duplicated by machine-made rugs.
