Sultanabad

An Afghan Sultanabad rug, knotted by hand with hand-spun, vegetable-dyed wool, woven by master weavers in northern Afghanistan.

An all-over floral design inspired by the weaving traditions of Sultanabad in west-central Persia, where nineteenth-century workshops evolved to meet Western demand, blending the traditional Persian aesthetic with spacious floral designs, creating rugs that have remained popular for nearly two centuries.
