Quality
Kurk wool—sourced from the softest under-fleece—delivers a supple hand and a subtle, natural sheen. The 100-knot weave locks each strand firmly in place, promising years of graceful ageing and a pile that springs back underfoot.
Origin & Craftsmanship
Every knot is set by Maymana artisans whose skills trace back generations. Working on upright looms, they hand-knot each motif with rhythmic precision, translating centuries-old Persian charts into contemporary art for modern homes.
