What are Afghan carpets called?
1 Answer
Rugs or carpets made in Afghanistan are usually labeled by the region in which they’re produced. While many of these rugs are crafted by Afghan people, there are also some made by Turkmen, a term which includes people from Uzbekistan, Turkmenistan, and Afghanistan. All traditional Afghan carpets or rugs tend to be of exceptional quality with great attention to detail.
