This hand-knotted Bokhara rug displays the classic repeating gul medallion pattern across a rich red field. The iconic elephant foot motifs are arranged in precise geometric rows, creating a rhythm that draws the eye while maintaining the balanced composition Bokhara weavers have perfected over centuries. The deep red ground provides a warm foundation for the intricate details within each gul, while the traditional border frames the design with complementary geometric elements.

Crafted by skilled Afghan weavers using premium wool sourced from highland sheep, this rug represents generations of weaving expertise passed down through tribal communities. The natural lanolin in the wool provides inherent stain resistance and durability, while the tight hand-knotted construction ensures this piece will withstand decades of use. Afghan artisans continue to use traditional techniques that create the dense, resilient pile characteristic of authentic Bokhara rugs.

At nearly 9 by 12 feet, this substantial rug anchors large living rooms, dining areas, or master bedrooms beautifully. The generous proportions work well under sectional seating arrangements or extending beyond dining tables to accommodate chairs. This size works particularly well in 9 x 12 rug layouts where you want the rug to define the entire seating area. Browse our complete selection of Bokhara rugs to compare traditional variations.
