Only one available — one-of-a-kind.

Across a warm driftwood grey field, symmetrically mirrored animal motifs — rabbits, birds, and trailing arabesque vines — are picked out in cream, soft beige, and sage. In Afghan weaving these creatures are a language, old symbols of prosperity, good fortune, and harmony with nature.

Woven from a blend of wool and silk, the surface holds a quiet luminosity, the silk lifting the grey ground with a subtle sheen. Sophisticated and versatile, it works as easily as a floor rug as a hung piece of art, and as a hand-knotted original, it is entirely one of a kind.

Material: A blend of 60 percent wool and 40 percent silk. The wool gives strength, softness, and warmth, while the silk lends sheen and depth of colour.

Care instructions

  • Vacuum gently on low suction without a rotating brush, as silk is delicate.
  • Rotate the rug occasionally so it wears and fades evenly.
  • Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth, working from the outside in, and do not rub.
  • Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to protect the colour and sheen.
  • Entrust any deep clean to a professional rug cleaner experienced with silk.
  • Light shedding is normal with new wool and settles within the first few months.

In Afghan rug-making, animals are a language. The mirrored rabbits, birds, and trailing vines woven across this grey field each carry old meanings of prosperity, good fortune, and harmony with nature, giving the rug a quiet narrative that purely decorative patterns lack. The restrained driftwood grey keeps that storytelling sophisticated rather than busy, an unusually versatile ground that flatters minimalist and richly layered rooms alike. As with every hand-knotted piece, small variations in colour and weave reveal the hand of a single weaver, marking it as genuinely one of a kind.
