Afghan Ersari Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 155 x 105 cm
Afghan Ersari Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 155 x 105 cm
One-of-a-kind hand-knotted piece
No two are alike - each rug carries its own pattern, colour balance and handmade character
This Afghan Ersari Hand-Knotted Wool Rug has a compact, grounded presence, with three bold central medallions arranged across a deep red field. The design feels strong without being heavy: dark geometric outlines give the motifs definition, while small ivory accents add light and detail through the surface. Ersari weaving is known for its structured tribal character, where repeated forms and borders create a sense of order, memory and hand-built tradition. Hand knotted in Afghanistan from wool, this rug reflects the patient rhythm of weavers building each line into the pile by hand. Its smaller size makes it a strong feature for an entrance, reading corner, bedside, study or layered interior space in a New Zealand home.

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.
