The weavers here are predominantly Uzbek, and their kilim tradition stretches back centuries, shaped by the nomadic cultures of the region and the Turkmen, Uzbek and Hazara influences that have long intersected in this part of Afghanistan.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eWhat makes Maimana kilims particularly rare is who makes them. This is one of the few weaving traditions in Afghanistan where the craft belongs almost entirely to women, passed from mother to daughter across generations. The patterns carried in these kilims are not sourced from a commercial catalogue. They are a visual language handed down within families, and every weaver brings her own interpretation to it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe wool is Ghazni wool, from the Ghazni sheep of Afghanistan, widely regarded as some of the finest carpet wool in the world. It holds dye exceptionally well, which is why the colours in a Maimana kilim stay rich and true over decades of use. The kilim is hand-woven on a horizontal ground loom, flat-woven with no pile, and fully reversible. When one side shows wear, you flip it. It is a rug that effectively has two lives.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eThe geometric tribal patterns are bold and tightly woven, rooted in the visual traditions of the region and largely unchanged over centuries.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Najaf Rugs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43271349928192,"sku":"NR-1500","price":4500.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0665\/1805\/7216\/products\/Afghan-Maimana-Kilim-Najaf-Rugs506-x-303-cm-167-x-911.jpg?v=1782365914"},{"product_id":"transitional-kohi-rug-427-x-301-cm-14-x-911","title":"Transitional Kohi Rug","description":"\u003cdiv class=\"flex max-w-full flex-col flex-grow\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv data-message-author-role=\"assistant\" data-message-id=\"76590090-d6f9-40b1-a426-f69058ee9bf4\" dir=\"auto\" class=\"min-h-8 text-message flex w-full flex-col items-end gap-2 whitespace-normal break-words [.text-message+\u0026amp;]:mt-5\" data-message-model-slug=\"gpt-4o\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"flex w-full flex-col gap-1 empty:hidden first:pt-[3px]\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"markdown prose w-full break-words dark:prose-invert light\"\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal leading-[1.7]\"\u003eKohi is exclusively designed by Najaf Rugs and hand-knotted in Afghanistan.
