This Afghan Onyx rug showcases the distinctive character created through a specialized oxidation process that selectively removes areas of the wool pile. The geometric patterns emerge in rich blue tones against subtle grey accents, creating depth and visual texture across the field. The oxidized areas catch light differently than the untreated wool, giving this piece an almost sculptural quality that shifts throughout the day.

Crafted by skilled Afghan weavers using traditional hand-knotting techniques, this rug represents generations of textile expertise. The foundation uses durable Ghazni wool known for its resilience and natural lanolin content that helps repel dirt. The intricate oxidation process requires precise timing and technique, making each Onyx rug a testament to the weaver's skill and patience.

At 6' 1" x 8' 9", this rug works well in medium to large living spaces, fitting comfortably under a dining table for six or anchoring a seating area in a family room.
