Afghan Khal Mohammadi Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 99 x 53 cm
Afghan Khal Mohammadi Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 99 x 53 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 has a strong red field with a more ornamented central focus, where warm ochre and muted olive details sit against dark navy and charcoal outlines. The medallion work feels compact but decorative, giving the rug a clear centre while the surrounding tribal motifs add rhythm and structure across the surface.
Khal Mohammadi rugs are recognised in Afghan weaving for deep red palettes, dark contrast and bold geometric patterning. This hand-knotted wool piece carries that tradition with a balanced mix of strength and decoration, creating visual warmth, depth and handmade character without feeling overly busy.

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.
