Introducing the exquisite rug from Afghanistan, featuring the captivating honeycomb design. This contemporary-style rug boasts a stunning teal background with an ivory border, creating a harmonious contrast.

Crafted by skilled ethnic Turkmen weavers, predominantly from the Esari Subtribe, this rug showcases the mastery of their art. The wool used for this rug is sourced from sheep in the Ghazni Province of Southeast Afghanistan, renowned for its mountainous terrain that naturally yields longer staple, oily, and higher quality wool. The raw Ghazni wool is then transported to the western side of Afghanistan, near Herat, where it is meticulously hand-carded and spun into exquisite carpet yarn.

Using traditional floor looms in their homes, these talented weavers create this masterpiece with asymmetrical "Persian" knot type. The warp and weft are made of cotton, while the pile is crafted from luscious wool. The double-wefted, heavily packed, and depressed warp weaving technique results in a remarkably durable handwoven carpet that can withstand the test of time.

To enhance its authenticity, this rug is dyed using centuries-old, all-natural dye stuffs, adding a touch of traditional charm. Its impressive knots per square inch (KPSI) count of 162 showcases the meticulous attention to detail and craftsmanship. Interestingly, by calculating the KPSI of our rug, we have determined that there are an astonishing 2,473,546 individually hand-tied knots in total.

With dimensions of 9'0" x 11'10", this extraordinary rug provides a generous area to enhance any living space.

Immerse yourself in the allure of this Afghan treasure, perfect for adding a touch of elegance and sophistication to your home decor.
