FAQs

Afshar rugs were originally crafted by the semi-nomadic Afshar tribe located predominantly in the Kerman region of southeast Iran. Renowned for their weaving heritage, Afshar weavers created highly durable pile rugs featuring distinctive geometric interpretations of classical Persian floral motifs and diamond lattice patterns.

Tribal Persian rugs are traditionally hand-knotted using locally sourced sheeps wool for the pile, knotted onto a wool or cotton foundation. Dyes were historically extracted from natural plant and mineral sources, creating rich, varied colour palette variations across the textile.

Authentic Afshar rugs feature a soft, pliable handle with visible hand-knotted structure on the reverse. Key stylistic markers include stepped medallions, diamond lattice fields, stylized botanical motifs, and multi-banded borders with characteristic palette variations.

An antique tribal rug serves as a foundational accent, introducing warm colour, geometric structure, and organic texture to neutral contemporary rooms. It can be placed beneath a coffee table or used to anchor a main seating grouping within open-plan living spaces.

Maintain wool carpets by vacuuming regularly using suction only without a rotating brush bar to prevent fibre damage. Position a quality rug pad underneath to protect against wear and dampness, rotate the rug annually to balance light exposure, and engage a specialist textile cleaner for periodic maintenance.
