Woven in the heart of Afghanistan by Hazara women artisans, this hand-knotted rug revives the grandeur of the Persian Zigler Mahal design — now softened into a contemporary whisper of its former self. Faded floral motifs in pale brown, ivory, and a powdery blue border bring quiet depth and serenity to any interior.
Made with organic hand-spun wool on a natural cotton foundation, the rug features subtle aging, frayed fringes, and visible repairs — giving it the look of a storied antique, without compromising its integrity.
This is a piece made not just to fill a space but to anchor a story.
