This maroon Khal Mohammadi displays the characteristic deep burgundy field that defines this traditional Afghan weave. Geometric motifs in darker brown tones create repeating diamond patterns across the surface, while subtle variations in the wool's natural texture add depth to each motif. The rich color palette speaks to the earthy tones of Afghanistan's northern provinces, creating a grounding presence that feels both ancient and enduring.

Woven by Turkmen craftsmen in northern Afghanistan, this rug showcases the robust construction techniques passed down through generations of nomadic weavers. The foundation uses sturdy cotton warps while the pile features high-quality Ghazni wool known for its durability and natural lanolin content. Hand-knotted using traditional Senneh knots, this construction method ensures the rug will withstand decades of use while developing a beautiful patina over time.

At 6'6" x 9'7", this piece works well in living rooms with standard furniture arrangements or dining spaces that seat six to eight people. The maroon base coordinates naturally with leather furniture, warm wood tones, and both traditional and contemporary interiors. These Khal Mohammadi rugs suit homes that appreciate authentic craftsmanship and understated elegance. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
