Story behind the rug:
Bokhara is a term commonly used to describe Tekke-faced rugs. Tekke was a tribe from the area of Bokhara in Central Asia. The design is dominated by rows of guls and surrounding geometric patterns. The Tekke tribe is also thought to have incorporated some design aspects of the Salor tribe, also from the area of Bokhara in Central Asia. Pakistani Bokharas are typically modern Tekke-face rugs made in Pakistan, which are among the most popular handmade rugs in the world. Pakistani Bokhara has a very soft and thick pile. Sometimes the pile is intentionally left signicifantly longer, called 'double pile,' resulting in extra thickness and depth, although there is a trade-off with the clarity of the pattern.
The handcrafted nature of this product will produce minor differences in design, weight, and sizing. Subtle variations will occur from piece to piece, adding to its unique qualities. Measurements may vary slightly.
