AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
-- Antique rug full of stories - impressive and very well preserved
-- Professionally cleaned*
-- approx. 160,000 knots per m²
-- With certificate
*Before entering our warehouse, cleaned at a laundry specializing in hand-knotted rugs, then never used again.
This is a hand-knotted Oriental rug, made of durable, natural materials. The way it is knotted and the diversity of patterns make this rug unique and emphasize its authentic and artisanal character. It is an excellent used rug with an extremely long lifespan.
Special Afghan, hand-knotted circa 1940 somewhere around Afghanistan and Turkmenistan. The knotting style and color usage of this distinctive rug are more Afghan, while the patterns and shapes resemble Turkmenistan rugs more. An impressive rug, exceptionally well preserved and full of stories. A wonderful piece of history, a rare rug that shows the development of knotwork by illustrating how these rugs were made over 80 years ago. A story about roaming freely and gathering other inspirations—even if they came from another country. Fully open to personal interpretation.
In addition, this rug also showcases the beauty of craftsmanship: nothing is perfect. Some irregularities in form and imperfections in patterns contribute to the authentic character and tell stories.
Note: with its long fringes, this rug is 230 cm long!
Main color: Red
Accent colors: Cream and brown- and blue-toned
Special features: Rich abrash (intrinsic natural color variations); Much movement; Beautiful clean and fresh; Gorgeous sheen; Antique & characterful; Special object; exceptionally well preserved.
