Afghan Khal Mohammadi Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 190 x 128 cm
Afghan Khal Mohammadi Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 190 x 128 cm
One-of-a-kind hand-knotted piece
No two are alike - each rug carries its own pattern, colour balance and handmade character
Six framed geometric medallions establish a strong, measured rhythm across the rich red field of this Afghan Khal Mohammadi rug. Smaller motifs add intricate movement between the principal forms, while the dark navy patterned border gives the composition depth and definition. Subtle tonal variation across the hand-knotted wool pile enriches the colour and reveals the individual character of the weave.
Woven in Afghanistan from pure wool pile, the rug reflects the bold palette and disciplined geometry associated with the Khal Mohammadi tradition. Its balanced motif arrangement and finely detailed borderwork create a distinctive decorative presence shaped by skilled handwork.

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.
