Forged in the echoes of mountains, Crivorn rises with a presence both unyielding and refined. Its field glows in deep iron and embered hues, while bold motifs march like the battlements of an ancient citadel. A central medallion gleams with austere brilliance, a crest of command woven into form. Hand-knotted by Afghan artisans, every knot is a stone in a fortress of tradition, every thread a pillar of endurance. This is not just a carpet — it is a monument underfoot, a legacy of might and mastery, eternal as the earth itself.
