Afghan Karghai Runner Rug - 389 x 83 cm Ivory Medallion Field
Afghan Karghai Runner Rug - 389 x 83 cm Ivory Medallion Field
One-of-a-kind hand-knotted piece
No two are alike - each rug carries its own pattern, colour balance and handmade character
An ivory field gives this Afghan Karghai Runner Rug a lighter, more graceful presence, allowing the deep burgundy medallions to stand out with gallery-like rhythm along its length. The design feels carefully composed: floral side borders, dark outlining, red accent work and central medallions moving through the runner like a repeated painted motif.
Hand knotted in wool, this long Karghai runner brings Afghan weaving character into a more refined decorative palette than the darker tribal runners. Its contrast of ivory ground, burgundy medallions and detailed border work gives the piece elegance, direction and enough visual richness to feel collected rather than crowded.

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.
