Afghan Turkoman Wool Rug - 68 x 49 cm
Afghan Turkoman Wool Rug - 68 x 49 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 Turkoman Wool Rug carries a strong sense of order without losing the warmth that makes tribal weaving so enduring. Two rounded gul medallions sit within a stepped geometric field, giving the composition a calm vertical rhythm, while the red ground brings richness and depth to the piece.
What gives this rug its character is the balance between bold structure and finer detail. Dark outlines, ivory accents and layered border bands sharpen the pattern and keep the design visually alive. Hand knotted in wool, it has the grounded presence and quiet confidence that define well-composed Turkoman weaving.

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.
