Introducing our exquisite Afghan Mamluk Tribal Rug, a true masterpiece of craftsmanship. This rug originates from Afghanistan, specifically from the Esari Subtribe of ethnic Turkmen weavers. The wool used to create this rug comes from sheep in the Ghazni Province of South East Afghanistan. The mountainous terrain in this region naturally produces longer staple, oily, and higher quality wool, perfect for carpet weaving.
The raw Ghazni wool is then brought to the western side of Afghanistan, around Herat, where it undergoes a meticulous process. Hand carding and hand spinning turn the wool into carpet yarn, ready to be transformed into this stunning piece. The weaving of this rug takes place on traditional floor looms, in the weavers' own homes, following the cottage industry type production.
Featuring an asymmetrical "Persian" knot type, this rug showcases an impressive level of artistry. The warp and weft are made of cotton, while the pile consists of high-quality wool. The double weft results in a heavily packed depressed warp weaving, ensuring the utmost durability and longevity.
This rug boasts a magnificent blue background, achieved through the use of natural indigo dye stuffs. Indigo, derived from the leaves of the indigo plant, has been utilized as a dye for thousands of years. Its vibrant blue hues have enchanted various cultures around the world.
Complementing the blue background is a striking red border, which derives its color from natural madder root dyes. Madder root, sourced from the Rubia tinctorum plant, has a long history as a dyeing agent. This natural dye can create a range of warm and cool red, orange, pink, and brown shades.
With a knots per square inch of 162, this rug exemplifies the meticulous attention to detail invested in its creation. Calculating based on the KPSI, we estimate that this rug consists of an astounding 2,320,172 individually hand-tied knots in total.
Measuring 8'9" x 11'5", this Afghan Mamluk Tribal Rug is a true testament to the skill and artistry of the weavers who brought it to life. Every thread tells a story, making this rug a remarkable addition to any collection or living space.

Don’t take our word for it


Last fall, my husband and I purchased a gorgeous silk from you for our Boston Condo. Based on the quality of your rugs and customer service, we decided to visit you again to purchase rugs for our Connecticut home. Luckily, we received your postcard about the tent sale and came home with two more stunning rugs.


I can't say enough good things about this store, especially Susanne and Breanna. I shop at many rug places as I am an interior designer looking for very specific rugs all the time. No one out there compares to this store and their wonderful Sales associates. Thank you Susanne and Breanna for all your help!


Over the past year we purchased three rugs, as well as carpet from L&A. Our experience could not have been more positive and we love what we purchased.
In addition, every single person
in the showroom was beyond helpful, knowledgeable and kind. It was truly a pleasure. Thank you!


Never have I enjoyed spending money as much as at Landry & Arcari!!! Thank you so much for your attention and guidance. The rug I chose grounds the furniture and makes the living room. It is so beautiful and I really appreciate all of your help.
