Afghan Gabbeh Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 149 x 95 cm
Afghan Gabbeh Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 149 x 95 cm
One-of-a-kind hand-knotted piece
No two are alike - each rug carries its own pattern, colour balance and handmade character
Bold simplicity gives this Afghan Gabbeh hand-knotted wool rug its distinctive presence. A rich navy field forms an expansive centre, while beige vertical stripe panels introduce measured rhythm at each end. The restrained geometry draws attention to the wool texture and subtle tonal variation, giving the minimalist composition warmth, depth and handmade character.
Hand-knotted in Afghanistan from pure wool pile, the rug brings a contemporary clarity to the Gabbeh tradition. Its compact proportions, confident colour contrast and uncluttered design create a versatile decorative accent with a calm yet memorable identity.

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 hand-knotted 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.
- Where additional colour is required, the wool in our hand-knotted rugs is coloured exclusively with vegetable dyes, complementing the fibre’s natural tonal variation and the individual character of the weave.
- Over time, vegetable-dyed handmade rugs may gently soften in tone, adding to the natural ageing and textile character that makes each piece unique.
