Handmade Chobi Rug

This super fine Chobi rug is one the highest quality. Chobi Rugs are hand-knotted by Afghan master weavers using locally handspun wool. The word "chobi" is from the Farsi word "Chob" which means wood. The beautiful abrash fading and variety of colors and hues are achieved by using vegetable dyes. Their natural dyes are made from a combination of hand-gathered roots, tree bark,nut shells, fruit skins, vegetable skins and dried flowers. They have very fine knots, the pile height is cut low and the colors washed to give that faded luminous look.
