Aqcha Bukhara Oriental rug 123x180 cm – handmade rug

Afghan Aqcha rug: details of the selected size

This 123 × 180 cm Afghan Aqcha rug originates from Afghanistan. It is hand-knotted with a wool pile and is 8–10 mm thick. The rug has a blue and burgundy colour palette.

The Aqcha rug is 123 cm wide, 180 cm long and 8–10 mm thick. The knot density is approximately 80,000 knots/m². The knot count is given per square metre, allowing this rug to be compared with handmade Oriental rugs of different sizes in this respect. This figure does not represent the total number of knots in the entire rug. The rug may also be suitable for a bedroom, provided the available space accommodates its dimensions.

The knotted part of this handmade rug is made of wool. The fibres of the hand-knotted pile lie in a particular direction. Changes in lighting and viewing angle can therefore produce a lighter or darker overall appearance. This difference between photographs taken from opposite ends of the rug is related to the direction of the pile.

The Afghan Aqcha rug is knotted by hand. Knots formed from wool yarn make up the pile of the rug; this construction method is one of the defining features of the rug. The video showing how it is made provides an overview of the process.

The video below presents the origin and making of the Afghan rug.

The width of 123 cm and length of 180 cm refer to this specific rug. Alongside the illustration of this type of rug, please also review the photographs of the actual product.

Caring for your Aqcha rug

Regular, gentle vacuuming is the basis of caring for the Afghan Aqcha rug. Set the vacuum cleaner to low suction and move the head in the direction of the wool pile. Keep the area beneath the rug clean as well. Avoid vigorous rubbing of the wool pile and, where possible, treat stains before they dry.

For spilled liquids, first blot up the moisture with a clean cloth. Do not rub the wool surface vigorously or use a cleaning product unless you know it is suitable for wool. Always test the chosen product in a less visible area first. For extensive or stubborn soiling, or a full clean, consult a professional.
