Afghan Khal Mohammadi Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 100 x 52 cm
Afghan Khal Mohammadi Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 100 x 52 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 Hand-Knotted Wool Rug takes a lighter approach to the tradition, with an ivory field framed by a warm red border and darker patterned outlines. The blue-grey medallions give the rug a clear visual centre, while small floral and tribal motifs bring movement across the surface without overpowering the softer ground colour.
Khal Mohammadi rugs are closely associated with Afghan weaving, often recognised for strong contrast, geometric structure and confident colour placement. In this hand-knotted wool piece, that character appears with a more refined, open feel, balancing traditional pattern strength with a brighter and more decorative presence.

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.
