Taimani, first quarter 20th century. No other rug in this group of two piece "bedding rugs" from Afghanistan comes close in sheer volume of wool used. The long soft pile is so closely knotted the weavers managed to create a rug that weighs almost double that of other similar rugs in this group. Weighing in at 23kg, sitting on this rug you sink into the long soft pile. Some colours are synthetic which have faded, mixed with natural wool colours. Will ship anywhere. 220 x 199 cm
