Origin & Tradition
This rug was hand-knotted in Maymana, Afghanistan, a region known for its strong weaving heritage and skilled artisan communities. Inspired by Persian design traditions, the large central medallion and surrounding floral pattern give the rug a timeless, formal character, while the handmade Afghan construction adds individuality and soul. Each piece carries slight handmade variations, making it a unique work of textile art rather than a mass-produced floor covering.
