Super Fine Turkmen Afghan Wool Rug

Hand knotted in northern Afghanistan by Turkmen women using New Zealand worsted wool. The radiating palette consists of rich reds, deep navy, various shades of browns, and just enough ivory to accentuate the intricate, geometric design. Part of the appeal of these types of carpets is experiencing the strong contrast between the “light” and “dark” sides of the rug. From one end (the end where the pile is running toward you) the colors will appear deeper, whereas from the opposite end the colors will appear lighter. As far as Fine Afghans go, this piece is exceptional.

PANTONE shades: We do our best to find the closest match to one or multiple colors in the rug. The shade card we choose may not always be the perfect one, but we do our best (it’s a lot of work)! At times we may show multiple shade cards so you can get a better sense of color. Finally, when photographing rugs from the same group (shipment, collection, SKU, etc.) we will often use one or two shade card(s) so that you can get a good sense of the coloration. Hope you enjoy viewing our beautiful rugs!
