Afghan rug

Afghanistan has a long-standing history of craftsmanship in rug weaving. A large part of the country is mountainous. The best-known Afghan rugs come from the north. These include hand-knotted Khal Mohammadi and Afghan Akhche rugs. Afghan oriental rugs are generally recognised by their warm dark red colours and the so-called gul ornaments. These are octagonal patterns that, because of their shape, are also referred to as elephant’s foot.

Natural Cotton

As a natural textile fibre obtained from plants, cotton is durable and is often used in rugs. As with clothing, cotton is characterised by a soft feel while also having a strong structure. In hand-knotted rugs, cotton is often used for the warp on the back, or rather for the rug’s foundation.

Hand-knotted

Traditionally hand-knotted rugs still represent the highest quality standard among all types of rug. Depending on the knotting technique, these rugs are extremely hard-wearing and can last for generations. The finer and denser a rug is knotted, the more detailed the ornaments and patterns that can be shown in the pile. At the same time, a very fine oriental rug requires significantly more manual work, as well as a higher level of experience and skill from the weaver. Knot density is therefore also a key factor in the value of hand-knotted rugs. However, quality is not directly linked to knot density. A more coarsely knotted rug can still be made to an excellent standard.

Care & Fair

Following our ethical principles, we at Nain Trading are declared supporters of the organization CARE & FAIR. The goal is joint action by carpet dealers worldwide to give children from carpet weaver families in India and Pakistan the foundation for socially protected growing up. This improves the situation for the whole family in the long term. A child-friendly childhood for a life worth living - that is the mission.
