Pakistani Red Bukhara Runner
£850£1,050In stock, ready to ship
A striking, beautifully made Pakistani Red Bukhara Runner — a timeless design woven with pride and skill in Pakistan. Expertly hand-knotted from premium hand-spun wool on a sturdy cotton base, it possesses a wonderfully soft, dense feel underfoot — durable enough for daily use while retaining that natural warmth and quality only genuine hand-spun wool provides. Glowing in a rich, deep crimson red, the field is filled with rows of the iconic Bukhara oval Gul medallions — each one distinct in ivory, gold and sage green, repeating rhythmically from end to end. Between them, crisp diamond and star motifs add further texture and interest, while broad, generously patterned borders frame the design in complementary gold, cream and green. The effect is bold, symmetrical and endlessly versatile — equally at home in traditional or contemporary settings. Measuring an impressive 369 cm by 79 cm, this is a truly generous runner — perfect for long hallways, spacious entrance halls, open-plan kitchens or dining room corridors. It brings instant warmth, colour and classic style to larger spaces, tying rooms together with its rich, glowing red palette and timeless tribal design. A genuine hand-knotted Pakistani Red Bukhara — beautifully proportioned, robust and built to last.

Count the knots yourself
This piece is woven at approx. 100 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 451,841 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 6 months.
How that is worked out: 145 in × 31 in × 100 knots per sq. in. ≈ 451,841 — that is 369 × 79 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.
