Rug material

Only one available — one-of-a-kind.

A warm, striated brown field runs the length of this rug, layered from chocolate and chestnut to soft taupe, and animated with tribal motifs picked out in undyed ivory wool. Bands of diamond-and-lattice run across the top and bottom, ladder-like comb rows mark the field, and a loose scatter of cream dots drifts between them — the spontaneous visual language of a nomadic Gabbeh.

Hand-knotted in Afghanistan from hand-spun wool rich in lanolin, the pile is dense, soft underfoot, and naturally resistant to everyday wear. The earthy brown ground with its ivory markings is warm and grounding, and the gentle irregularity of the motifs marks it as a genuine one-of-a-kind piece.

Material: 100 percent hand-spun Afghan wool, 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.

The motifs on a Gabbeh are rarely planned in advance; the weaver adds them from memory as the rug grows. Here a brown field carries three different tribal marks in ivory — diamond-and-lattice borders, ladder-like comb rows, and a free scatter of dots — each a traditional symbol passed down through generations of nomadic weavers. Because the wool is hand-spun and the patterns drawn by eye, nothing repeats exactly; those small irregularities are the fingerprint of a handmade piece, the trace of a single weaver rather than a machine.
