Chobi rugs first emerged in Northern Afghanistan during the 1990s as a more refined expression of the region’s long-established weaving traditions. This Afghan Chobi rug takes its name from the Farsi word chob, meaning wood, which reflects the soft, timber-toned colour palette these rugs are known for. Each piece is woven entirely by hand, with skill passed down through generations of Afghan artisans.

This rug has been woven with a tightly packed knot structure, giving it a fine, durable finish and allowing for greater detail in the design. The wool is hand-spun using traditional methods and selected for its quality, softness, and natural strength. It holds onto its lanolin, which gives the rug a silky sheen and that smooth, velvety feel underfoot.

The low pile catches the light gently, giving the rug a soft glow and a sense of quiet movement as you walk past it. It’s a handmade Afghan rug that brings warmth, texture, and character to any space. Understated, elegant, and made to last for generations.

Kindly Note: This rug is part of our upcoming container shipment, due to arrive mid to end of February 2026. Once received at our Melbourne warehouse, it will be dispatched immediately.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the rug look the same in person as it does online?

We photograph every rug in natural light with minimal editing, so the colours you see are as true to life as possible. It’s something we take a lot of care with, and something our customers often comment on.

That said, colours can shift slightly depending on your screen or the lighting in your home. If you’d like extra photos or a video before purchasing, we’re always happy to help.

How long does delivery usually take?

Delivery times depend on your location.

For most Australian orders, delivery is quite quick. NSW and VIC typically arrive within 1–2 business days, the ACT within 2–3 business days, QLD and TAS within 2–4 business days, and WA and the NT within 3–6 business days.

Most international deliveries arrive within 1–4 weeks.

You can find more detailed timeframes on our Shipping & Delivery page: Shipping & Delivery.

Can I see this rug in person before I decide?

Of course. You’re very welcome to visit our Rowville warehouse to view rugs in person.

If there’s a particular piece you’d like to see, just let us know in advance and we’ll have it ready for you.

All visits are by appointment, but we’re very flexible with timing and happy to work around what suits you best. Feel free to give us a call or message us anytime and we’ll find a time that works.

What if the rug isn't quite right?

We want you to feel completely confident in your purchase. If something doesn’t feel right once you’ve seen it in your space, we’re here to help.

We accept returns or exchanges on full-priced items, meaning pieces that are not part of our clearance collection.

Returns must be initiated within 4 days of receiving your order, or within 4 days of purchase if bought in person.

As each rug is handmade and one of a kind, we keep this window short so that any returned piece can be offered again in the same condition.

Rugs must be returned in the same condition they were received.
