6'7" X 9'8" Handmade Fine Afghan Wool Rug

Fine Afghan Handmade rug is a type of hand-woven floor-covering textile traditionally made in the northern and western areas of Afghanistan mainly by Afghan Turkmen and Uzbeks. Welayati wool yarn is machine-spun yarn, so it absorbs all the dyes meaning it doesn’t have the Abrash effect. Welayati wool goes through a unique process to become soft and silky-shiny. Pattern_ Fine Afghan Handmade Rugs have several types of patterns. Traditionally, Afghan carpets are knotted in the colors of the red spectrum. Dark tones predominate here the lighter ones. Patterns and designs are dominated by Flower- an octagonal row pattern - and stars, which are also octagonal. These are knotted on the dark red background together with stylized floral patterns such as flowers in the colors blue and beige. Especially popular are Khal Mohammadi or Afghan Aqche and more patterns like the Aala Bakhmal pattern, Yousfi pattern, Bukhara pattern, Charfasal pattern and etc. Color_ Various vegetable and other natural dyes are used to produce the rich colors. The rugs are mostly of medium sizes. Many patterns and colors are used.
