This Afghan Khal Mohammadi runner presents a commanding red field filled with traditional octagonal guls arranged in precise rows. The deep crimson background provides a rich canvas for the geometric medallions, each outlined in contrasting dark borders that create rhythmic repetition along the rug's length. Small secondary motifs fill the spaces between the main guls, adding intricate detail without overwhelming the bold primary design.

Woven in the regions of Afghanistan and Pakistan, Khal Mohammadi rugs represent a cherished tribal tradition passed down through generations of skilled artisans. This piece is hand-knotted from durable wool using time-honored techniques that ensure both beauty and longevity. The natural wool fibers are carefully selected for their strength and ability to hold rich dyes, creating colors that will remain vibrant for decades of use.

At 2' 7" x 6' 8", this runner works beautifully in hallways, alongside kitchen islands, or as an accent piece in entryways and narrow spaces. The traditional tribal pattern complements both classic and contemporary interiors, particularly those with warm color schemes. This size from our 3 x 5 rug collection pairs well with other pieces from our Khal Mohammadi rug collection. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
