Whispering with the spirit of ancient lands, Azmir glows like twilight upon sacred stone. Its field shimmers in deep sapphire and emerald hues, while patterns unfold like verses from a forgotten scripture. A central medallion rises with quiet majesty, a beacon of wisdom and grace bound in thread. Hand-knotted by Afghan artisans, every knot is a prayer of patience, every motif a mark of heritage. This is not just a carpet — it is a relic of elegance, a timeless guardian underfoot, radiant with history and soul.
