EORC Handmade Afghan Wool Turkish Knot Rug 9' x 12' Red

Hand-Knotted Afghan Wool Rug

This hand-knotted area rug measures 9' x 12' and features a transitional geometric pattern in red. It is crafted from 100% hand-spun Afghan wool using the Turkish Ghiordes knot technique by master weavers in India. The construction creates a naturally irregular texture and color variation that adds warmth and dimension to living rooms, bedrooms, dining areas, and offices. The low-shedding pile is designed to lay flat in medium to high-traffic spaces.

Thermal Comfort and Maintenance

The dense wool pile provides natural insulation underfoot, helping to regulate floor temperature in both warm and cool seasons. Wool fibers naturally absorb sound, reducing ambient noise and footfall echo in large rooms without any mechanical components or power draw. Routine care involves vacuuming on a low pile setting and spot cleaning with cold water and mild soap. The rug should be kept away from prolonged direct sunlight to prevent fading of the natural dyes.

Hand-Spun Wool Authenticity

The defining specification is the use of 100% hand-spun Afghan wool sourced from a specific region, which creates the rug's unique irregular texture and natural color variation. This material, combined with the Turkish knot construction, determines the rug's durability, aging characteristics, and tactile feel. Buyers seeking a perfectly uniform, machine-made appearance or synthetic stain-resistant fibers should consider other options.
