Ziegler / Chobi Hand-Knotted Rug

£1,850£2,200In stock, ready to ship

beautifully proportioned Afghan Chobi Ziegler, hand-knotted in Northern and Central Afghanistan — a wonderful example of this beloved tradition, blending timeless design with a softly faded, contemporary palette that suits both classic and modern interiors perfectly. Measuring 238 cm × 188 cm, this is a versatile and generous size — ideal for living rooms, dining areas or principal bedrooms. A warm, welcoming field of soft terracotta and amber forms the heart of the rug, flowing with graceful scrolling vines, delicate blossoms and leafy motifs rendered in gentle ivory and cream. The design is open and balanced — calm, unhurried and effortlessly elegant, never overwhelming a space. Wide cream borders frame the composition with repeating floral medallions and soft decorative elements that echo the central design — creating a harmonious, peaceful aesthetic that brings instant warmth. Woven from the finest premium wool, the pile is exceptionally soft, dense and smooth underfoot — crafted to endure and to soften with years of use. Understated, warm and welcoming — a perfect bridge between traditional craftsmanship and contemporary taste. Destined to harmonise with any interior.

Count the knots yourself

This piece is woven at approx. 160 knots per square inch, which works out at approx. 1,109,653 knots in total — every one tied by hand, over approx. 7 months.

How that is worked out: 94 in × 74 in × 160 knots per sq. in. ≈ 1,109,653 — that is 238 × 188 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.
