Origin & Tradition
Hand-knotted in Sheberghan, Afghanistan, this rug brings Baluch-inspired geometric design into the work of local Afghan weavers. Its visual appeal rests in the arrangement of repeated forms and contrasting colors, expressed through the patient process of tying individual knots. That human workmanship gives the piece its individuality, bringing the warmth of a handmade textile into a carefully considered interior.
