Afghan Turkoman Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 235 x 158 cm
Afghan Turkoman Hand-Knotted Wool Rug - 235 x 158 cm
One-of-a-kind hand-knotted piece
No two are alike - each rug carries its own pattern, colour balance and handmade character
The border is where this Afghan Turkoman rug turns intricate. Narrow bands of diamonds and angular forms build a warm-brown frame around the off-white field, where dark guls repeat in orderly rows. Muted blue-grey accents surface through the pattern and gather in the fringe, adding a cooler note to the earthy colours.
Hand-knotted in Afghanistan with a pure wool pile, it draws its character from that change of scale. The larger guls make an immediate impression; the close-set borders invite a slower look at the workmanship.

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.
