Woven using 100% natural hand-spun wool on a strong cotton foundation, Khal Mohammadi carpets are dyed with traditional methods that produce rich, long-lasting colours. Their low-to-medium pile makes them ideal for both decorative and high-traffic spaces.

History of the Khal Mohammadi Carpet

Unlike many rugs named after regions, the Khal Mohammadi carpet is named after Khal Mohammad, a legendary Afghan weaver and dyer active in the mid-20th century. He became renowned for perfecting a unique deep red dyeing technique, which later became the signature of this carpet style.

Originally produced by Turkmen and Afghan tribal communities, these carpets were woven for daily use in tents and homes. Over time, the exceptional quality of the wool, the strength of the knots, and the striking colour combinations attracted international attention, turning Khal Mohammadi rugs into a sought-after export and collectible Oriental carpet.

Today, authentic Khal Mohammadi carpets continue to be hand-knotted using traditional methods, preserving a rich cultural heritage while meeting modern standards of quality and design.
