Quality
Crafted using premium Welayati Kurk wool, this rug possesses a remarkably soft texture while maintaining the strength and resilience expected from a fine hand-knotted carpet. Woven at approximately 100 KPSI (knots per square inch), the rug achieves a beautiful balance between durability and pattern clarity. The dense knotting allows the intricate Turkmen motifs to be rendered with precision, while the high-quality wool develops a rich patina over time, enhancing the rug’s beauty for generations.
The sturdy cotton foundation provides structural stability, making this rug suitable for both everyday living spaces and formal interiors. With proper care, it is designed to become an heirloom piece that can be enjoyed for decades.
Origin & Tradition
This rug originates from Maymana, Afghanistan, a region celebrated for producing some of the finest Turkmen rugs in Central Asia. The Khoja Roshnai design is rooted in centuries of Turkmen weaving tradition, distinguished by its orderly arrangement of geometric guls that symbolize tribal identity and cultural heritage.
Each rug is individually hand-knotted by artisans who continue techniques passed down through generations. The result is more than a floor covering—it is a work of cultural craftsmanship that preserves the artistic legacy of Afghan Turkmen weaving while bringing warmth, authenticity, and sophistication into the modern home.
