Afghan handmade rug,Chobi . Size: 269x178 cm

This piece is a hand-knotted Chobi rug from Afghanistan — no two ever come out quite the same. The pattern is a Chobi, the style Afghan weavers developed specifically to mimic the soft, aged colour of an antique Persian rug using new wool. It's knotted from 100% wool with natural dyes, which is why the tones sit slightly muted rather than looking printed or synthetic.

At 269 x 178 cm (8.8 x 5.8 ft), it's a good middle-of-the-room size — large enough to matter, not so large it fights the furniture. It ships as the individual piece shown in these photos; once it sells, that particular rug is gone. Currently marked down from SR 6,500 to SR 5,267.
