A dark indigo field anchors this hand-knotted rug, climbed by a central column of large serrated diamond medallions in ivory, madder and aubergine — the pole-medallion layout of the Shahsavan tribal weavers. The field around them is packed with botehs, eight-pointed stars, little animals and geometric charms, while ivory corner spandrels lighten the four quarters. A multi-coloured striped kilim finishes each end, the unmistakable mark of a tribal flatwoven foundation.

It is hand-knotted in Afghanistan by master weavers working in the older Caucasian Shirvan tradition, with a fine, even knot count, a low clipped pile and flat-woven kilim ends. The indigo, madder and aubergine have depth and a gentle, light-catching variation that machine-made rugs can never reproduce. A broad aubergine border of bold palmettes and rosettes, framed by ivory guard stripes, gathers the whole piece together.

Densely woven and built to last, this is a collector-grade piece — at home as the centrepiece of a formal living or dining room. As a hand-made rug, it is genuinely one of a kind. The pile is low, hand-clipped, with striped kilim ends.

Material: 100 percent hand-spun Afghan wool coloured with natural dyes, naturally rich in lanolin, which gives it softness, a subtle sheen, and a natural resistance to everyday dirt and spills.

Care instructions

Vacuum regularly on low suction without a rotating brush.
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.
Use a professional rug cleaner for any deep clean.
Light shedding is normal with new wool and settles within the first few months.

This rug follows the pole-medallion layout of the Shahsavan, the tribal confederation of north-west Persia and the eastern Caucasus, whose weavings are prized for their bold colour and tribal charms. A column of large serrated diamond medallions climbs a dark indigo field in ivory, madder and aubergine, surrounded by botehs, stars and small animals, with ivory spandrels lighting the corners. Each end is finished with a band of multi-coloured striped kilim, the flatwoven signature of a tribal loom. Knotted entirely by hand in Afghanistan from hand-spun wool and natural dyes, no two motifs are exactly alike and the colours shift softly across the field — the fingerprint of a single weaver rather than a machine.
