About Afghan war rugs
Every Afghan rug is one of a kind, handmade over weeks and months in homes and small workshops by Afghan families, some who have been doing this for generations. Using the same traditional techniques, the rugs are woven, dyed, washed, cut and stretched, ready for use.
War rugs represent the history of the war in Afghanistan. Since around 1979 Afghan weavers have been working the images of war into their rugs. Following 9/11 and the invasion of Afghanistan, the twin towers, helicopters, hand grenades and even predator drones began to feature in the designs.
All our war rugs are genuine, made in Afghanistan. Selected and imported by us.
Warm regards, Aaron
