Horizontal bands of stepped medallions and stripes in red, blue, and gold stack across the circle in a layered banded design. It is a bold tribal design and a red round Khurjeen rug with a warm, natural palette.
Hand knotted by skilled artisans in premium hand-spun Ghazni wool, this Khurjeen rug is dyed with natural vegetable dyes and finished with a bold, saturated palette. Each knot is the Turkish (Ghiordes) double knot, which gives the horizontal bands of stepped medallions and stripes a firm, even surface and a short, antique-style pile. The short pile keeps it practical for living rooms, dining rooms, and entryways.
Tribal families of the borderlands between Afghanistan and Pakistan have long woven for their own homes, and the Khurjeen style carries that hand-made, everyday-use spirit into a rug made to be lived on. The patterns were never drawn on paper, which is why no two Khurjeen rugs are exactly alike.
The narrow vertical bands show how tribal weavers built a design from many strips, each carrying its own repeated motif. Repetition was the point: rows of the same small symbol are often read as a kind of woven protection, and a full-size rug lets that rhythm run across the whole floor.
Woven in the tribal Khurjeen tradition, this round rug brings quiet drama to a dining room, foyer, or sitting area. Use it as an entryway rug, a round rug under a breakfast table, or an accent rug in a reading nook. Its bold geometry and natural, softly weathered color pair as easily with Southwestern and rustic interiors as with refined traditional and modern ones.
