Featured Hand-Knotted Rugs

This is where we put everything worth looking at. The featured collection spans the full range of what ALRUG carries - from tribal Baluchi pieces woven in the villages of Afghanistan and Pakistan to the finest Ariana Haji Jalili rugs with their exquisitely detailed floral fields, from bold geometric kilims in natural vegetable dyes to large-format Serapi and Sultanabad designs that anchor the grandest rooms. Every price point is represented. Every major weaving tradition from the Afghan and Pakistani rug world is here.

The collection is organized around one principle: genuine hand-knotted and hand-woven quality. Machine-made rugs and hand-tufted imitations do not appear here. What you see are pieces produced by skilled weavers working on traditional looms - in some cases weavers whose families have practiced the same craft for generations, working from design vocabularies that connect directly to the tribal and court weaving traditions of Central Asia and the Middle East.

At the accessible end of the collection, tribal Baluchi rugs in the 3x5 and 4x6 size range offer genuine hand-knotted Afghan craftsmanship at entry-level prices. These dark, intricately geometric pieces carry the authentic design vocabulary of Baluch tribal weaving - midnight blues, deep reds, complex geometric fields - at a price point that makes genuine handmade quality accessible to buyers who cannot yet commit to a larger investment piece.

At the upper end, the Ariana Haji Jalili collection represents some of the finest hand-knotted wool rugs produced in Afghanistan today. These pieces draw on the great Haji Jalili tradition of Tabriz-inspired Afghan weaving - dense, finely knotted wool pile with complex floral and medallion designs in soft, sophisticated palettes. Room-sized pieces in 9x12, 10x13, and larger formats are available for buyers who want a centerpiece rug of genuine quality and distinction.

Between these poles the collection encompasses Serapi-design rugs with their characteristic warm terracotta and ivory palettes, Afghan Laghari kilims with bold geometric flat-weave designs, Baluchi prayer rugs, Caucasian-influenced Kazak pieces, pictorial rugs, Oushak-style designs, overdyed vintage pieces, Ikat patterns, Gabbeh tribal rugs, Bokhara and Jaldar gul-format pieces, and the full range of Afghan vegetable kilims. The style filters above let you narrow by specific tradition, color, size, and shape.

Every piece is sourced directly from weavers in Afghanistan and Pakistan with free worldwide shipping on every order.
