A Worldly Statement with Soft Power: Afghan Khotan Samarkand Rug
Step into a space of global refinement with this hand-knotted Ariana Medallion rug, inspired by the historical Samarkand and Khotan designs of the Silk Road. Woven by Hazara women in northern Afghanistan using organic, hand-spun wool, this piece brings ethical craftsmanship and old-world elegance into the modern interior.
The geometric medallion design and wide decorative borders are rooted in Central Asian tradition, while the camel, soft blue, and creamy ivory palette lends a light, elevated touch. It’s substantial in character yet easy on the eye—ideal for designers creating grounded, layered, story-rich interiors.
Every knot honors heritage. Every thread speaks style. And yes—your clients will ask where you found it.
