One-of-a-kind hand-knotted piece

No two are alike - each rug carries its own pattern, colour balance and handmade character

Across the dark brown field, large blush-pink palmettes and floral rosettes sit within a tracery of slender turquoise vines. Their measured symmetry leaves space around each form, while the broad blue border gathers smaller flowers and narrow guard bands into a richly defined frame.

Hand-knotted in Afghanistan from pure wool pile, this Sultani rug pairs traditional floral patternwork with a nuanced palette. Burgundy, ivory and ochre accents sharpen the composition without crowding it, preserving the graceful spacing that makes its ornament so distinctive.

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.
