Afghan Khal Mohammadi Paired Medallion Wool Rug - 63 x 42 cm
Afghan Khal Mohammadi Paired Medallion Wool Rug - 63 x 42 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 Khal Mohammadi Wool Rug has a more architectural feel than many small tribal pieces, with two octagonal medallion panels set along the red field like framed emblems. Their dark outlines and fine internal geometry give the design a composed strength, while partial side motifs add movement around the central structure.
Hand knotted in wool, the rug draws its character from balance rather than excess. The red ground carries warmth, the navy lines give definition, and small ochre and ivory details bring the pattern to life in controlled flashes. It feels traditional, compact and deliberate, with a clear handmade presence shaped by colour, symmetry and restraint.

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.
