Fine Afghan Kazak
290 × 190 cm · 90 KPSI · Wool on cotton base

Afghanistan · Geometric
A handsome Afghan Kazak hand-knotted carpet — a wonderful example of this celebrated tribal style. Woven in Afghanistan from thick, rich hand-spun wool on a sturdy cotton base — durable, plush, and built to last a lifetime. Beautifully balanced cream field with bold geometric medallions in deep blue, red, and gold — classic Kazak design at its most striking. Wide multi-band borders carry repeating tribal motifs that frame the design perfectly. Warm, earthy tones bring instant warmth and character — sits beautifully in both traditional and modern homes. At 308 cm × 224 cm, this is an ideal generous room size — perfect for living rooms, dining spaces, or large hallways. Authentic, hard-wearing, and undeniably eye-catching — a true classic that will only improve with age.

Look closer
This piece is woven at approx. 90 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 966,737 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 10 months.
How that is worked out: 121 in × 89 in × 90 knots per sq. in. ≈ 966,737 — that is 308 × 225 cm converted to inches, because knot density is counted per square inch.
Magnify past 13× and the field stops being a picture and becomes what it actually is: rows of individual knots, each one a decision about colour made at a particular moment.
The same test works in the shop, on any rug, with no equipment. We wrote up how to do it in the back of the rug tells you everything.
