Woven with a Welayati Kurk wool pile on a cotton foundation, this rug offers a refined balance of softness, strength, and lasting beauty. Kurk wool is valued for its fine texture and elegant feel, while the cotton foundation gives the rug stability and structure. With a 92 KPSI knot count, the design is carefully defined without losing the handmade charm that makes Afghan rugs so desirable.
Origin & Tradition
This rug comes from Maymana, Afghanistan, a region known for its strong tribal weaving heritage and expressive handmade rugs. The Bakhtiari design is admired for its compartment-style layout, often inspired by gardens, nature, and symbolic tribal art. In this piece, that tradition is interpreted through a bold green palette and carefully arranged geometric panels, making it a distinctive handmade rug with both cultural depth and decorative elegance.
