Introducing our exquisite rug from Afghanistan, featuring a NW Persian design and a tribal style. The background of this rug is a deep navy, beautifully contrasted by an ivory border. The main color of this rug is a stunning shade of blue.

Handcrafted by skilled ethnic Turkmen weavers, most of whom belong to the Esari Subtribe, this rug is a true masterpiece. The wool used in this rug comes from sheep in the Ghazni Province of Southeast Afghanistan, where the mountainous terrain provides longer staple, high-quality wool. The raw Ghazni wool is then transported to the western side of Afghanistan, near Herat, where it is hand-carted and hand-spun into carpet yarn.

Woven on traditional floor looms in the comfort of their own homes, this rug is a testament to the cottage industry type production. The weavers utilize an asymmetrical "Persian" knot type, creating a durable foundation. The warp and weft are made of cotton, while the pile is made of all wool. The double wefted construction and heavily packed depressed warp weaving ensure that this rug is built to last for generations.

This rug embraces centuries-old traditions by using all-natural dye stuffs. The mesmerizing blue color is derived from natural indigo dye, obtained from the leaves of the indigo plant. Indigo has been used by humans for thousands of years and has a rich history in various cultures around the world.

With a knots per square inch (KPSI) of 80, this rug boasts an impressive total of 245,157 individually hand-tied knots. The meticulous craftsmanship and attention to detail are evident in every inch of this rug.

Measuring at 2'9" x 7'10", this rug is a perfect addition to any home or interior space. Its design and colors make it a versatile choice that can complement a variety of decor styles.

Immerse yourself in the beauty of this Afghani rug, crafted with care and skill. Add a touch of elegance and cultural heritage to your surroundings with this unique piece.
