Afghan Turkaman weave, 16th century Oushak-inspired 350x179cm | Rug# 26723

A distinctive custom-made Afghan Turkaman rug inspired by a 16th-century Turkish Oushak design, featuring a strong central medallion composition with stepped geometric forms and richly detailed floral borders. The softened palette of dusty rose, teal, blue, green and warm earth tones gives the historic design a refined, decorative character suited to both classic and contemporary interiors.

Hand-knotted by Turkaman women artisans in a studio workshop in Mazar-i-Sharif, Afghanistan, circa 2018, using handspun local wool and natural vegetable dyes. The traditional materials create beautiful tonal variation and a rich natural texture, while the skilled construction provides excellent durability and an authentic hand-crafted finish.
