Kharghai is a village in the mountains between Afghanistan and Pakistan.. the
People are Uzbek Turkoman and their designs reflect their long cultural history.
The wool is handspun giving a fine ‘silkience’ and allowing the dense knotting and high definition in the designs. All the dyes are produced locally from whatever vegetation is available to the weavers using methods going back hundreds if not thousands of years. Most of the dyes take months to brew and therefore have a greater resistance to lightening than commercially produced carpets from Iran etc.
This piece is reminiscent of the classic Ersari tribal carpets so cherished by collectors over the years.
