- Khal Mohammadi Runner, Qafkaz Pattern — 200cm × 76cm (6’7″ × 2’6″) A true hallway statement: a hand-knotted Khal Mohammadi runner from Balkh, Afghanistan, worked in the classic Qafkaz diamond lattice and a saturated red that reads warm, confident, and refined. Sized at 200cm × 76cm (6’6.74″ × 2’5.92″), this piece sits in the sought-after “7ft Khal Mohamadi runner rug” class while offering the nuance only a village loom can impart. Video of the rug Key Features Hand-knotted with a crisp 100 KPSI for sharp, repeat diamonds Welayati Kurk wool pile on a stable cotton foundation Qafkaz (Caucasian-inspired) diamond motif in a rich, traditional red Exact size: 200cm × 76cm (6’6.74″ × 2’6″) Origin: Balkh, Northern Afghanistan Quality The surface is a fine Welayati Kurk wool—silky to the touch, naturally resilient, and known for a gentle sheen that elevates the color field. At 100 knots per square inch, the weave grips each diamond cleanly so lines stay true and edges read deliberate rather than soft. The cotton warp and weft hold everything square, giving the runner a confident lay that handles daily foot traffic with grace. Origin & Craftsmanship Balkh has long favored the Khal Mohammadi school: red grounds, disciplined geometry, and a preference for balanced repetition over fuss. This runner follows that lineage. Each row of diamonds is laid by hand—no templates, just the weaver’s practiced count—so the rhythm feels alive, not manufactured. The result is a runner with presence: culturally grounded, unmistakably Afghan, and made to age beautifully.
