Quality & Craftsmanship
Ghazni hand-spun wool pile adds texture and depth, with subtle variations in the yarn lending character to the surface. Hand-knotted at 82 knots per square inch on a cotton foundation, the rug combines a stable structure with wool’s natural resilience. Its materials offer comfort underfoot and durability for regular use with proper care.
Origin & Tradition
Made in Maymana, Afghanistan, this piece carries traditional hand-knotting into a transitional design. Familiar floral ornament takes on a simpler, larger-scale expression, giving the rug an easy place among both classic furnishings and contemporary silhouettes. The craftsmanship remains central to its appeal: a decorative textile built patiently, knot by knot.
