Crafted from high-quality materials, this rug features a content of wool on cotton, ensuring both a luxurious feel and exceptional durability. This rug is the perfect addition to any space, providing a statement piece that will captivate the viewer. Now, let us delve into the fascinating world of its origins. The weavers behind this masterpiece primarily come from the Esari Subtribe in Afghanistan. They skillfully utilize wool sourced from the Ghazni Province, known for its mountainous terrain, which naturally produces longer staple and higher quality wool. This luxurious Ghazni wool is then transported to the western side of Afghanistan, near Herat, where it undergoes the traditional processes of hand carding and hand spinning to create the carpet yarn required for weaving. The weaving process itself takes place in the weavers' own homes, following the principles of cottage industry production. Utilizing traditional floor looms, these talented artisans meticulously create each rug with an asymmetrical "Persian" knot type. The warp and weft threads are made from cotton, while the pile is crafted from the finest wool. This particular rug boasts exceptional durability, thanks to its double-wefted wafted heavily packed depressed warp weaving. This technique ensures that it can withstand the test of time, making it an investment piece that will adorn your space for generations to come. Adding to the allure of this rug is its centuries-old dyeing technique. Each stunning hue, including the mesmerizing blue, is derived from natural indigo dyestuffs. Natural indigo dyes, sourced from the leaves of the indigo plant (Indigofera tinctoria), have been cherished by cultures worldwide for thousands of years due to their ability to produce vibrant blue shades. With a knot count of 80 knots per square inch, this rug showcases the intricate craftsmanship and attention to detail put into its creation. Our calculations reveal that this piece boasts an impressive 1,236,936 individually hand-tied knots in total, a testament to the skill and dedication of the weavers. Embrace the beauty of this rug, and let it transport you to a world of tranquility and elegance. Its timeless design and exceptional craftsmanship make it a true treasure that will enhance any space with its charm and sophistication.
