Afghan Rugs

Afghan rugs in Sacramento — the rug Afghans call qali or qalin (قالین) — in the bold geometry, deep madder reds and tribal motifs that have defined Afghan and Turkmen weaving for centuries. From the elephant-foot gül medallions of Turkmen designs to the sturdy field patterns of the Khal Mohammadi and Baluch traditions. For background, see our Afghan rug traditions & patterns guide, the deep dives on Khal Mohammadi and Baluch rugs, and our local Afghan Rugs in Sacramento page.

Two ways to buy Afghan rugs from us

  • Hand-knotted Afghan carpets — showroom, by appointment. Genuine hand-knotted pieces woven in Afghanistan by Turkmen, Baluch and Hazara weavers in hand-spun wool: Turkmen gül, Khal Mohammadi, Baluch and Aqcha. These are shown in person at our Sacramento showroom and are not listed online. Book a viewing →
  • Afghan-design rugs — online. The rugs listed on this page are machine-woven (power-loomed) in Türkiye in the Afghan design tradition, with the fringes attached and finished by hand and the edges hand-serged or hand-bound. Imported directly by container to the United States.

The Afghan weaving traditions these designs draw on

  • Turkmen tribal — repeating gül (flower) medallions on deep red grounds. The classic “Bukhara” look.
  • Khal Mohammadi — Mazar-i-Sharif region: geometric field patterns in deep madder red.
  • Baluch — finer scale, dark palette, prayer-rug formats and tribal medallions.
  • Aqcha — Northern Afghanistan, bold geometric field designs in red / black / cream.
  • Afghan Kazak — tribal Caucasian-influenced patterns, vivid colour blocks.

How to choose an Afghan rug for your home

These patterns work beautifully in California craftsman, mid-century modern, Spanish revival and farmhouse interiors — the warm reds and earthy palettes ground rooms with leather, wood and natural fibre. In modern minimalist spaces the geometric repetition reads as graphic rather than busy.

Sizing & companions: Afghan tribal designs traditionally come in long runner formats (3×10, 3×13) and tribal sizes (5×7.5, 6.5×10). Pair one with an Afghan toshak set for a majlis-style seating corner. 10×13 ft is the largest size we carry, and we sell from stock only.

Buying Guide

How to Choose the Right Rug for Your Home

A fine rug should feel beautiful, balanced, and practical for the way you live. Use this quick guide to choose the right size, color, material, and style.

Choose the Right Size

For living rooms, 8×10 or 9×12 usually frames the seating area. For dining rooms, choose a rug that extends at least 24 inches beyond the table.

Match Your Color Story

Burgundy and gold create a warm traditional look. Navy and cream feel elegant and modern. Ivory, beige, and soft tones help brighten smaller rooms.

Understand Rug Quality

Machine-made rugs offer consistent patterns, durability, and easier maintenance. Higher density and detailed weaving create sharper designs.

Shop by size

Not sure what fits? In a living room the rug should reach 18–24 inches past each side of the sofa. In a dining room, allow 24 inches beyond every chair so the chairs stay on the rug when they are pulled out.

Practical buying notes

What to know before buying a machine-made rug

Construction

The online catalog is power-loomed in Türkiye with hand-attached fringes and hand-finished edges. Each product page lists the exact construction, density, pile height and material.

Material & feel

A polypropylene pile on a cotton warp and weft — soft underfoot, colourfast, and far more forgiving of traffic and spills than wool.

Cleaning

Colourfast and water-safe, so a rug can be washed at home by hand or with a carpet-cleaning machine. Never in a washing machine or dryer. Day to day, vacuum on low with the beater bar off.

Best rooms

Living rooms, dining rooms, hallways, family rooms and majlis seating — anywhere you want a traditional look that survives daily use.

Hand-knotted

Genuine hand-knotted Afghan carpets are shown at the Sacramento showroom by appointment. They are not part of this online catalog.

Common questions

How much is shipping, and how long does it take?

Shipping is free on orders over $110 across the USA and Canada, and a flat $20 below that. Orders leave within one business day and arrive in 3–5 business days in the U.S. Sacramento-area online orders get free local delivery in 1–2 days.

What is your return policy?

30-day returns on online orders. Items must be unused, in original condition and in original packaging. The customer pays return shipping; if a rug arrives damaged or faulty, we pay. Approved refunds are processed within 3–7 business days.

Are these rugs machine-made or hand-knotted?

The online catalog is power-loomed (machine-woven) in Türkiye, with hand-attached fringes and hand-finished edges. Every product page lists the exact construction, density, pile height and material. Hand-knotted Afghan pieces are shown at the Sacramento showroom by appointment and are not listed online.

Can a rug be cut or bound to a different size?

We sell from stock rather than weaving to order, and the largest size we carry is 10×13. What we do in house is cutting, binding, overlocking and fringe work on a rug we already stock, so an existing piece can be trimmed to fit an alcove or a stair run. Ask us and we will tell you what is on the floor.

Can I see the rugs in person before buying?

Yes. The showroom is at 3423 Watt Avenue, Sacramento, open daily 10:00 AM – 7:30 PM. We speak English, Turkish, Farsi, Dari, Pashto and Urdu, and the team can help with size and colour choices.
