Afghan Bokhara Runner Rug - 486 x 79 cm Red Gul Corridor
Afghan Bokhara Runner Rug - 486 x 79 cm Red Gul Corridor
One-of-a-kind hand-knotted piece
No two are alike - each rug carries its own pattern, colour balance and handmade character
A long red field gives this Afghan Bokhara Runner Rug a strong corridor-like rhythm, with repeated gul medallions carrying the eye cleanly from one end to the other. The narrow format makes the pattern feel almost processional: rows of traditional motifs, dark border lines and geometric end panels working together with clear structure and movement.
The length is the key selling point here. Hand knotted in wool, this Bokhara runner brings classic Afghan tribal patterning into an extended runner size, giving the piece visual direction, rich red colour and enough border detail to feel formal without becoming overly busy. The detailed border work, visible fringe and folded-corner view add a closer sense of wool texture, hand-knotted structure and traditional finish.

Care & Maintenance
- Hand-knotted wool rugs are made to last with the right care. Vacuum gently using a suction-only setting, rotate the rug occasionally for even wear, and blot any marks promptly with a clean cloth rather than rubbing.
- For deeper cleaning, professional rug cleaning is recommended to help protect the wool fibres, natural dyes and handmade structure of the rug.
Note
- Each rug is professionally photographed to represent its colours as accurately as possible, while natural light, pile direction and digital display settings may create subtle variations in tone.
- Each hand-knotted rug is coloured using 100% vegetable dyes, giving the fibres natural depth, gentle tonal movement and the individual character of handmade weaving.
- Over time, vegetable-dyed handmade rugs may gently soften in tone, adding to the natural ageing and textile character that makes each piece unique.
