Introducing our exquisite handwoven rug, crafted with utmost skill and precision by talented ethnic Turkmen weavers, predominantly from the Esari Subtribe in Afghanistan. Hailing from the rich tradition of Afghani rug making, this masterpiece showcases the renowned Serapi design, blending the essence of transitional styles into its intricate patterns.
The captivating ivory background serves as a canvas for the vibrant seaglass border, seamlessly harmonizing the overall composition. Made with the finest wool sourced exclusively from sheep in the Ghazni Province of South East Afghanistan, renowned for its mountainous terrain conducive to producing longer staple, higher quality wool. This raw Ghazni wool undergoes a meticulous process of being hand carted and hand spun around Herat in the western region of Afghanistan, transforming it into exquisite carpet yarn.
The rug comes to life on the traditional floor looms, skillfully operated by the weavers in their own homes, embodying the essence of a cottage industry-type production. Every knot is crafted with an asymmetrical "Persian" knot type, ensuring both durability and impeccable craftsmanship. The foundation of the rug consists of a cotton warp and weft, while the luxurious wool pile brings warmth and softness to the touch.
Embracing centuries-old traditions, all-natural dye stuffs are used in the creation of this remarkable rug, resulting in captivating hues that stand the test of time. The rug's size proudly boasts dimensions of 8 '0 " X 9 '9 ".
With a notable knots per square inch of 80, our meticulous calculation reveals that this magnificent piece of art boasts a staggering total of 887,692 individually hand-tied knots. This rug truly represents the pinnacle of quality and beauty, making it a remarkable addition to any space it graces.
