Only one available — one-of-a-kind.

A glowing madder-red field comes alive with a shikargah — a ‘hunting ground’ — one of the most treasured designs in Oriental weaving, once reserved for the courts of Persia and Mughal India. A flowering tree of life rises at the centre, its scrolling vines and blossoms sheltering the creatures of the royal hunt: gazelles and deer leap across the ground, lions and leopards give chase, and hares and songbirds hide among the flowers. A serene ivory border of navy palmette cartouches and rosettes frames the whole.

Hand-knotted in the Ghazni highlands of Afghanistan from soft, hand-spun highland wool, the pile is dense, lustrous and built to last for generations. The palette is drawn entirely from natural dyes, so the red glows with a gentle abrash and every animal and blossom is drawn a little differently — the honest signature of a genuine one-of-a-kind, hand-made piece.

Care instructions

  • Vacuum regularly on low suction without a rotating brush.
  • Rotate the rug occasionally so it wears and fades evenly.
  • Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth, working from the outside in, and do not rub.
  • Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to protect the colour.
  • Use a professional rug cleaner for any deep clean.
  • Light shedding is normal with new wool and settles within the first few months.

The shikargah — literally ‘hunting ground’ — is one of the most prized and storied designs in the weaving tradition, once reserved for the courts of Persia and Mughal India. Across a glowing madder-red field, a flowering tree of life spreads its branches, and among the blossoms move the creatures of the royal hunt: leaping gazelles and deer, prowling lions and leopards, hares and birds in flight. Hand-knotted in the Ghazni highlands of Afghanistan from soft, hand-spun wool and coloured with natural dyes, each animal is drawn by hand and no two are alike — a genuine one-of-a-kind heirloom.
