Afghan handmade rug,Chobi. Size:242x204cm

Woven by hand in Afghanistan, this Chobi rug is the sort of piece that gets better with a bit of foot traffic. It's woven in the Chobi style — an open field, a restrained border, and a colour palette built to look decades old the day it's finished, and you can see the difference up close. The wool is undyed or naturally dyed where possible, so the colours are warm rather than flat, and the pile is dense enough to handle a busy household.

Sized 242 x 204 cm (7.9 x 6.7 ft), it's roomy enough to define a seating area without swallowing the rest of the floor. One rug, one weaver, months of work — which is also why no two pieces in this range are identical. Currently marked down from SR 7,400 to SR 5,430.
