Its origin can be traced back to Afghanistan, specifically to the skilled Turkmen weavers, predominantly from the Esari Subtribe. The wool used in this rug comes from sheep in the Ghazni Province, known for its top-quality wool due to the region's mountainous terrain.

The entire weaving process takes place in Afghanistan, with the raw Ghazni wool being transported to the western side, near Herat. There, it is meticulously hand carded and spun into carpet yarn. The weaving itself is done on traditional floor looms in the weavers' own homes, reflecting the cottage industry type production.

Featuring an asymmetrical Persian knot type, this rug has a cotton warp and weft with an all-wool pile. Its double-wefted construction with heavily packed depressed warp weaving ensures exceptional durability, making it one of the most robust handwoven carpets available.

Adding to its allure, this rug is dyed using centuries-old, all-natural dye stuffs, allowing for a remarkable color palette that resonates with authenticity and tradition. The expertise and artistry of Afghani weavers shine through in every individually hand-tied knot, making this rug a true symbol of craftsmanship and cultural heritage.

With an impressive knots per square inch (KPSI) of 80, we have calculated that this rug boasts an astounding 944,918 individually hand-tied knots in total. This meticulous attention to detail and dedication to the weaving process result in a rug of exceptional quality and beauty.
