Curator's Notes

DESIGN
▸ Traditional hand woven Afghan Baluch rug with geometric motifs and Islamic “mihrab” design
▸ The “mihrab” or prayer niche design replicates the archway in the wall of a masjid which denotes the direction of prayer
▸ Patterned with traditional gul (rose) design on rich burgundy wool with natural, undyed wool fringes
▸ The nature of handmade rugs is that not one is perfect. Traditional rugmakers of prayer rugs often take pride in knowing that some "imperfections" inevitably manifest in their work because perfection is for God alone.

FABRIC
▸ Our handmade rugs are 100% wool pile (wool knots) on a 100% wool base (wool fringes) or a 100% cotton base (cotton fringes)
▸ Wool is the most popular material for handmade rugs because of its incredible durability and resilience. Unlike cheap polyester rugs, these rugs will not “crush” or “indent” from constant use.
▸ Wool rugs offer a traditional aesthetic and a natural, authentic feel
▸ Wool rugs are easy to clean and will last a lifetime

THE COLLECTION
▸ The prayer space (musalla) is the most important part of the home. We desire to ensure that your prayer sanctuary is equipped with quality and meaningful pieces that embody ihsān - true beauty and excellence. Hence, we curated our first collection: The Prayer Rug. The goal of our first collection is to offer remarkable prayer rugs that elevate the prayer experience.

DISCLAIMER
Age-related wear and natural inconsistencies are inherent in these unique, handcrafted rugs
▸ Given the sheen of the rugs, the colors and brightness may look slightly different based on the lighting in the room. We try to take our photos from all angles and under standard white LED lights to bring you the truest color."
