Northern Afghanistan is known for its rich tradition of carpet weaving
Chubbi carpet weaving reflects a blend of traditional techniques and patterns passed down through generations, influenced by both the local Afghan culture and neighboring Persian (Iranian) designs. Straddling the trade routes between the Middle East, Central Asia, and South Asia, Afghanistan has also contributed to the distinctive cultural styles and techniques found in Afghan carpets.
Afghan rugs: a fusion of local artistry and historical influences
Chubbi rugs are hand-knotted from high-quality wool, offering both warmth and durability. The artisans’ meticulous attention to the weave’s fineness results in a dense, plush pile, a hallmark of Chubbi carpets. Deeply rooted in Persian artistic tradition, yet uniquely Afghan in execution, they are intricately woven, displaying exceptional craftsmanship. Afghan Chubbi carpets can endure regular use, making them a practical choice for moderate to high foot traffic areas in the home.
