a quiet fire lives in this rug —
a tapestry of deep reds and midnight shadows,
woven by hands that learned patience from the earth itself.
each motif is a heartbeat from the past,
each line a path walked by generations.

Vintage Tegap Bukhara Rug 8'1" × 11'6" ft – Hand-Knotted Afghan Wool | Timeless Turkmen Masterpiece

A striking piece of Afghan heritage, this vintage Tegap Bukhara rug carries decades of story, craftsmanship, and tradition within every knot. Woven by Turkmen women artisans across northern Afghanistan, it embodies the soul of tribal design — rhythmic motifs, deep red tones, and a texture softened beautifully by time.

Crafted from luxurious Ghazni wool on a cotton foundation, the rug features naturally dyed fibers and the unmistakable geometry of the Tegap Bukhara style. Its aged patina, softened pile, and balanced patterning make it a stunning anchor for large living spaces, collector interiors, or heritage-inspired homes.
