A deep red ground is divided into a grid of garden compartments — each panel filled with a different motif of flowering plants, botehs, diamond medallions and cypress trees in blue, gold, cream and green — in this hand-knotted Ghazni. A red border of blossoming trees, flanked by a navy floral guard stripe, frames the panelled field. It follows the classic Bakhtiari ‘khesti’ garden design, a much-loved pattern of the region.
Hand-knotted in Afghanistan from soft, hand-spun highland wool, the pile is dense and hard-wearing, with a gentle sheen. Coloured with natural dyes and worked entirely by hand, the tones glow with soft abrash and every compartment is drawn slightly differently — the honest mark of a genuine one-of-a-kind, hand-made piece.
