The piece
Afghan Akhche
Hand-knotted from 100% wool, this Afghan Akhche rug showcases a traditional tribal aesthetic with bold, structured geometry. A rich burgundy field provides the backdrop for classic octagonal gul motifs arranged in repeating vertical columns, framed by detailed multi-layered borders in contrasting black. The thin wool pile offers an authentic, low-profile texture with soft fringe trim along the ends, combining traditional craftsmanship with lasting construction.
