This distinctive Onyx Oriental rug presents a sophisticated grey field where geometric motifs create visual depth through varying pile heights. The oxidation process used to achieve the Onyx effect removes select areas of wool pile, resulting in a textured surface that catches light differently across the pattern. The monochromatic grey palette shifts from charcoal to lighter silver tones, creating subtle contrast that brings the geometric designs to life. The overall effect is both contemporary and traditional, with clean lines that feel modern yet rooted in classical weaving traditions.

Crafted in Afghanistan using traditional hand-knotting techniques, this wool rug represents generations of weaving expertise passed down through Afghan artisan families. The high-quality Ghazni wool provides exceptional durability and a lustrous finish that will maintain its beauty for decades. The intricate oxidation process requires skilled craftspeople who understand both the chemistry and artistry involved in creating the distinctive Onyx texture. Natural dyes ensure the grey tones will remain rich and fade-resistant over time.

At nearly 13 by 17 feet, this substantial rug anchors large living spaces, great rooms, or formal dining areas with ease.
