Quality
Woven with an average of 82 knots per square inch, this rug offers a strong balance of detail, texture, and everyday durability. The pile is made from Ghazni handspun wool, valued for its natural softness, strength, and rich character. The cotton foundation provides stability, helping the rug keep its shape over time. Each floral element is carefully hand-knotted, giving the surface depth and a handmade quality that machine-made rugs cannot reproduce.
Origin & Tradition
This rug was made in Maymana, Afghanistan, a region known for producing durable, character-rich handmade rugs. The Kerman design is admired for its elegant floral language, especially the use of Shah Abbasi flowers, vines, and decorative leaves. In this piece, that classic inspiration is interpreted through Afghan craftsmanship, creating a rug that carries both cultural depth and a distinct handmade identity.
