Shop Authentic Afghan Rugs in Australia
Explore a curated range of handwoven Afghan rugs that carry the cultural depth and tribal artistry of Afghanistan. At Persian Rug Co., we offer genuine Afghan carpets crafted using traditional methods passed down through generations.
Woven by Hand, Steeped in Tradition
Each rug is handmade by skilled artisans using natural wool, vegetable dyes, and age-old knotting or flatweave techniques. Sourced from weaving regions across Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iran, and India, these rugs reflect tribal heritage, geometric symbols, and earthy, enduring colour palettes.
