Balek

The Balek carpet is a captivating depiction of vibrant marine life, resembling the intricate work of a skilled weaver. The design features a school of fish against a light blue backdrop, creating a perfect canvas for detailed embroidery. The rug is crafted using high-quality natural wool, and the knotting technique is a product of decades of experience passed down through generations in traditional carpet-making regions. The animal kingdom has long been a favorite motif among Afghan weavers, and the Balek carpet presents a modern interpretation of this classic theme. The use of light tones and an asymmetrical composition adds a contemporary edge while staying true to the traditional manufacturing process.
