Quality
Every knot matters. At 92 knots per square inch, the weave achieves a balance between supple texture and intricate pattern definition. Ghazni wool—prized for its long fibers and natural lanolin—gives the pile a subtle sheen and exceptional softness, while the cotton base provides structural integrity for decades of daily use.
