Origin & Tradition
This rug was hand-knotted in Maymana, Afghanistan, a region known for its skilled weavers and deep tribal weaving heritage. The Heaven’s Garden pattern reflects a poetic side of Afghan rug-making, where nature, animals, and symbolic garden scenes are woven into a piece of functional art. With its round form, red palette, and peaceful garden imagery, this rug is not only a floor covering—it is a distinctive handmade statement with cultural soul and timeless appeal.
