About This Rug

Rug Description

The Daizangai are a Hazara tribe from western Afghanistan, living in the Badghis and Herat provinces. These rugs are woven entirely by women, on their own looms in their own homes, using a construction technique that sets them apart from almost anything else in Afghan weaving.

Like the Barjasta tradition, Daizangai rugs combine two weaving methods in a single piece, a weft-wrapped flatweave base with knotted pile worked on top of selected design elements. The result is a rug with depth and texture that moves between surfaces, flat and raised, in the same field. The precision required to execute small knotted pile designs at this scale dictates a knot count of up to 300 knots per square inch, extraordinarily fine for a tribal rug, and achieved entirely by hand.

The construction is 100% wool throughout, thin and refined, and the tribal patterns are geometric and personal, carried from memory and adjusted by each weaver's own hand.

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.

For full details, please see our Returns & Exchanges page: Returns & Exchanges.
