The Story of This Rug
Shah Abbas motifs matured in 17th-century Safavid palace workshops, forming the foundation of classical Iranian garden aesthetics that connect the palmette, rosette, and spiral branch systems. Rugs produced by the Ziegler company in Sultanabad at the end of the 19th century carried this heritage to the European market; today, Afghan weavers continue the same tradition in Mazar-i Sharif workshops. The choice of red background enhances harmony with modern interiors.
Why a Single-Piece Handwoven Afghan Rug
- Each rug is crafted by a single weaving team; it is impossible to reproduce the exact same piece.
- 100% Ghazni sheep wool resists stains thanks to natural lanolin and develops a patina over the years.
- Natural root and bark dyes fade and soften over time, unlike synthetic colors.
- Asymmetric Persian knotting ensures dense and durable weaving.
- Natural washed finish gives the rug an antique texture and soft hand feel.
Color and Pattern
Large palmettes spread in the center on a red background, surrounded by rosettes and a spiral branch system all over. Madder red, golden yellow, and indigo tones enliven the motifs; ivory corner pieces frame the composition. The border features a chain of palmettes and rosettes wrapping the field.
Care Recommendations
- Vacuum once a week with low power and without a brush.
- Remove stains by gently pressing with a damp white cloth; do not rub.
- Have it professionally cleaned every 3-4 years.
- Keep away from direct sunlight and use a rug pad.
This rug, delivered as a numbered original artwork, is a unique piece bearing the weaver's signature.

Protect Elegance
A delicate care routine should be adopted to preserve the original splendor and silky texture of handwoven and natural fiber Carpetdocia pieces that add value to your living space for generations.
Immediate Response and Liquid Contact
Timing is the most critical factor in case of possible liquid spills. Use a clean, slightly damp cloth to gently blot the liquid from the surface without rubbing. Always perform this action in the direction of the carpet pile (the natural lay of the fibers). Rubbing can damage the shape of delicate fibers like TENCEL™ and viscose. Stop the intervention immediately if you have any doubts.
Routine Care and Light Balance
Always prefer vacuum cleaners with low suction power in your weekly cleaning routine. High-powered upright vacuums and stiff brushes can damage the natural structure of handwoven yarns. To balance the reaction of natural fibers to light and prevent localized color differences (fading), we recommend rotating your carpet every 2 to 6 months.
Expert Touch (Professional Cleaning)
Noble textures such as handwoven, TENCEL™, viscose, and New Zealand wool should not come into contact with household chemical cleaners. These products can irreversibly damage the carpet’s silky shine and structural integrity. For deep cleansing, seek support only from professional carpet care centers specialized in natural fibers.
Washing Instructions
Delicate pieces in the Carpetdocia collections are not suitable for machine washing due to their structure. (Only specific models clearly labeled "Washable" in their name can be washed in household machines on a low heat and gentle cycle.)
