10×13 Red Caucasian Kazak Hand-knotted Area Rug
Three bold medallions give this hand-knotted Kazak rug a commanding presence, balanced by the warmth of a light red field. Blue, ivory, and pale orange motifs introduce lively contrast, while navy accents in the borders add depth. The result is a generous statement piece with both structure and warmth, beautifully suited to a living room furnished with leather, natural wood, or understated linen.

Quality & Craftsmanship
Ghazni handspun wool gives the pile a richly textured finish, with subtle variations in the yarn bringing character to the color. Hand-knotted at 82 knots per square inch on a cotton foundation, the rug combines carefully formed motifs with a flexible construction. Naturally resilient wool provides comfort underfoot and durability for regular use, with proper care helping maintain its beauty.
Origin & Tradition
Made in Sheberghan, Afghanistan, this piece interprets Caucasian Kazak design through Afghan hand-knotting craftsmanship. Its clipped-corner medallions and angular ornament celebrate the expressive geometry of that design tradition. The patient work of tying individual knots translates those bold forms into a substantial textile, bringing artisan character and a sense of history to the home.
