Handwoven Yak Gul Parak Taoosi 6’1’’ X 9’1’’

A grand tribal rug featuring the traditional Yak Gul Parak Taoosi pattern—peacock-flower geometry and artisan heritage in a statement scale.

Craftsmanship & Provenance
Hand-knotted by Afghan artisans trained in traditional tribal weaving techniques, this 6'1" × 9'1" piece reflects the disciplined geometry and vibrant palette characteristic of Central Asian rug-making. The Yak Gul Parak Taoosi (single flower peacock butterfly) pattern—with its repeating floral medallions inspired by nature's most ornate bird—requires exceptional technical skill and pattern memory. Woven on a vertical loom with meticulous attention to motif clarity and color distribution, each knot contributes to a surface of remarkable density and visual depth.

Materials & Construction
Crafted from hand-spun Ghazni wool colored with natural vegetable dyes, the rug features a vibrant palette of jewel tones—sapphire, emerald, ruby, and ivory—arranged in rhythmic geometric bands. Ghazni wool—prized for its superior fiber length, softness, and ability to hold vibrant dyes—creates dense pile construction with exceptional tactile richness. The fine knotting ensures crisp motif definition, while the wool's natural luster enhances the rich color work and ensures graceful aging.

Design & Aesthetic
Traditional Yak Gul Parak Taoosi motifs—repeating peacock-flower medallions—create visual rhythm across the field while maintaining compositional balance. The generous 6'1" × 9'1" scale (approximately 55 square feet) makes this piece ideal for anchoring living rooms, dining areas, or bedrooms. Works beautifully with gallery-like interiors—plaster walls, natural wood, and minimal furnishings—where the rug can command attention as a centerpiece.

Dimensions & Care
Measures 6'1" × 9'1". Suitable for high-traffic areas; the dense Ghazni wool construction ensures decades of use. Professional cleaning recommended.

One-of-a-kind.
