AFGHAN CUSTOM RUGS

Afghan rugs are amazing. Their pile is low and dense and they last forever. The wool is spun in one ply and we use a Turkish knot or Persian knot (depending on what the design calls for). These knots are the most durable on the planet and they show off the traditional dyeing process that produces a natural lustrous sheen. Given their low pile height, the resilience of wool and their dense weave, Afghan rugs perform well in contract settings like hotel lobbies and conference rooms. This is heirloom quality. This rug can be passed on to your kids, or grandkids or your cousin Ida if that’s how you want to handle your estate.

We have over 1200 colors in our library and can dye to match to your color palette
if we need to. Because of the high weave densities, we can execute intricate modern designs, or replicate an Antique pattern. Most of the old rugs that Sotheby’s sells for hundreds of thousands of dollars are made using these knots and were made in Central Asia – so we can make you a masterpiece.

 

Here’s some basic info to get us started:

 

A custom rug is anything that isn’t in stock. Don’t worry we don’t charge extra for custom rugs – it’s just that you won’t get it in 3 days, we’ll have to make it. And since these are made by hand, they take a little time (it’s worth it).

 

Here’s what you can expect:

 

2x32 months6x94 months

 

3x52 months8x104 months

 

3x103-4 months9x125 months

 

4x64 months10x146 months

 

5x74 months

 

 

For custom rugs or rugs that aren’t in stock, we request a 50% deposit with the order.

 

If you want to change a color or size, we can quickly do a computer rendering that will show you what your rug will look like. The lead times are the same as listed above once the design is approved and the rug is ordered.

 

If we are doing a brand new design, just for you, we can work a few ways. Some clients have their design in a format that is ready to get graphed, others need Angela’s help to make their drawing or design ready for weaving. She loves this part so feel free to give us your ideas. If the design work is extensive we do charge a design fee and this will include rounds of changes so we get the design just the way you want it.

 

Angela will work with you to select the weave density, knot type, colors, textures, you know, the fun stuff. Once everyone loves what they are seeing, we can put the rug into production with a 50% deposit.

 

Because our rugs are made by hand, we can make weird shapes, odd sizes, really long runners, and gigantic rugs. There are limitless possibilities – 1000s of colors in wool, different knot styles, varying textures and pile heights. Whatever you need for your space, just call or email us to discuss. We can make it.
