- Zerkhaki Khal Mohammadi — Authentic Afghan Hand-Knotted Rug (10×15) Commanding in scale and rich in heritage, this 10×15 Khal Mohammadi rug is a museum-worthy statement from the looms of Maymana, Afghanistan. A deep, resonant red sets the stage for a rare Zerkhaki composition: crisp geometric lattices anchored by Tree of Life medallions and finished with elegant vase motifs in the borders. Hand-knotted in premium Biljik Kurk wool, it delivers the quiet power of true luxury—refined, collectible, and built to endure. Video of the rug Key Features Size: 298 cm × 465 cm (approx. 9 ft 9 in × 15 ft 3in), commonly classified as 10×15 Design: Zerkhaki design in classic Khal Mohammadi style Palette: Signature, saturated Afghan red with subtle abrash for depth Pattern: Geometric field with repeating Trees of Life; vase motifs gracing the borders Material: Premium Biljik Kurk wool pile on a durable cotton foundation Weave: Meticulous, artisan hand-knotted construction Quality At approximately 156 KPSI (knots per square inch), the weave achieves remarkable clarity without sacrificing strength.

Expect excellent colorfastness, graceful patina over time, and heirloom-level endurance.

The Tree of Life symbolizes growth and continuity; the vase borders nod to abundance and welcome. Each knot is the work of skilled artisans preserving a lineage measured in centuries, rendering this piece not just a floor covering, but a cultural artifact of lasting significance.
