Traditional Rugs

Medallions, palmettes and flowering vines fill our traditional rugs, drawn from the city workshops and village looms of Persia, Afghanistan and Central Asia.

Afghan Chobi rugs are central here, hand-knotted from lanolin-rich hand-spun wool into a low, smooth pile, along with the finer Afghan Balkh and mini Chobis that keep the same detail in a small format. Vintage Persian rugs come from Kerman, Tabriz, Kashan, Sarouk, Bakhtiari and Hamadan. Turkmen Ersari and Princess Bokhara rugs bring repeating guls, and Afghan Kazakh, Super Kazakh, Herati and Biljik rugs add bolder geometry.

A traditional rug grounds a room, whether that's a formal dining room or a relaxed living space with linen sofas and modern art. Deep reds and navy feel warm and settled, while cream and pastel grounds keep things lighter. Around 300 × 200 cm suits most living areas with a three-seater sofa.
