Quality
Welayati Kurk wool—prized for its long, fine fibers—gives the pile a refined hand and gentle luster, allowing the orange and red tones to glow without glare while the dark navy grounds the palette. The 156 KPSI structure tightens each line and angle, preventing pattern drift and promoting long-term resilience. A stable cotton foundation keeps the rug flat and true, so edges remain clean and corners stay square over years of use.
Origin & Craftsmanship
Hand-knotted in Maymana, Afghanistan, this design draws from Yousifi Turkmen tribal vocabulary—geometric forms distilled to their essentials, repeated with deliberate cadence. The work is methodical and slow: warp by warp, knot by knot, until the field resolves into a precise grid of motifs. The result is a rug that carries regional character and the discipline of traditional loom practice, tailored for modern rooms without losing its lineage.
