Its compartmentalized geometric composition with a central star medallion creates a composed relationship between pattern, border and open space. The foundation of warm ivory \/ cream is enriched by terracotta, rust, muted gold, warm brown, charcoal, deep navy, forest green, aubergine and soft grey, allowing the detail to reveal itself gradually rather than all at once.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eEach knot is tied individually by hand. The resulting surface carries subtle variations in tension, texture and colour placement that distinguish genuine artisan work from industrial production. These are not imperfections; they are evidence of the people, time and judgement behind the finished carpet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePattern:\u003c\/strong\u003e Traditional Mamluk-Inspired Geometric Pattern\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign:\u003c\/strong\u003e Compartmentalized Geometric Composition with a Central Star Medallion\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% Natural Afghan Sheep’s Wool\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTechnique:\u003c\/strong\u003e Entirely hand-knotted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKnot density:\u003c\/strong\u003e 40 × 40 knots per 10 cm—approximately 160,000 knots per m²\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCrafted by:\u003c\/strong\u003e Three experienced Afghan artisans\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eProduction time:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately three months\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Maimana, Faryab, Afghanistan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e Brand New \/ Never Used\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eField colour:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm Ivory \/ Cream\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAccent colours:\u003c\/strong\u003e Terracotta, Rust, Muted Gold, Warm Brown, Charcoal, Deep Navy, Forest Green, Aubergine and Soft Grey\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSize and availability:\u003c\/strong\u003e Approximately 200 × 300 cm; Approximately 6 m² Imperial\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy Collectors and Interior Designers Choose It\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthentic construction:\u003c\/strong\u003e the carpet is entirely hand-knotted using established Afghan techniques.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNatural material:\u003c\/strong\u003e wool brings warmth, resilience, tactile character and the ability to age gracefully.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesign integrity:\u003c\/strong\u003e its pattern and borders create a clear visual structure with detail that rewards close viewing.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eIndividual character:\u003c\/strong\u003e no handmade carpet is mechanically identical to another.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eEnduring placement:\u003c\/strong\u003e with appropriate care, a well-made wool carpet can remain part of an interior for generations.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eImagine This Carpet in Your Home\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe palette of warm ivory \/ cream with terracotta, rust, muted gold, warm brown, charcoal, deep navy, forest green, aubergine and soft grey can establish the room without overpowering it.
