Najaf Rug's are crafted to withstand the test of taste & time. We weave rugs that make our customers feel like they are a part of something beyond trends. To have a piece of history living in your decor, you can't put a price on that. That's the ethos of Najaf Rugs.

The founder of Najaf Rugs, Najaf Mazari, learned the intricate art of making rugs at the age of 12 in his hometown of Mazar-E-Sharif in Afghanistan. In 2001, he arrived in Australia as a refugee and built this business from the ground up six months after his arrival. His passion for rugs still shows in every single rug he sources. There's no better decision than buying a rug from someone who knows every rug's ins and outs and how to weave one.
