Description

KHYBER ZAWAR – A Chromatic Landscape Woven by Hand

The Khyber Zawar rug is a testament to the expressive power of hand-knotted Pakistani craftsmanship—where colour, texture, and artistic intention converge into a sculptural floor piece. Rooted in the same design ethos that defines our collaborations with visionary creators and our recent partnership with Touching Floors, this rug embodies the belief that a carpet is more than an object. It is a tactile artwork; a carrier of emotion, memory, and presence.

Hand-knotted by master artisans in Pakistan, Khyber Zawar translates the raw beauty of weathered earth into a refined contemporary palette. 

As with all Ashtari bespoke creations, the rug is made to order, woven with patience and intention rather than mass production. Each piece can be tailored in size. Our artisans work knot by knot, responding intuitively to the designer’s chromatic cues—an approach we proudly share with Touching Floors, where the act of “touching” is not metaphorical but literal: the loom, the wool, the hands, the colours, the floor.

The result is a rug that feels alive.
A rug with depth, warmth, and artistic presence.
A rug that transforms interiors not by shouting, but by grounding them.


Key Features

  • Hand-Knotted in Pakistan
    Crafted by experienced artisan families whose traditional techniques have been refined over generations.

  • Painterly Texture & Tonal Movement
    High-low wool pile subtly shifts under the light, echoing the layered chromatic philosophy of our Touching Floors collaboration.

  • Custom Made – Always Unique
    No two Khyber Zawar rugs are ever identical. Sizes, materials, weave density, and colours can be tailored to your interior project.

  • Premium Natural Materials
    Made with hand-carded, hand-spun wool for softness, resilience, and organic irregularity.

  • A Modern Heirloom
    Designed to mature beautifully over time, collecting patina and character.


A Rug for Connoisseurs of Texture & Atmosphere

Khyber Zawar belongs to the new generation of artistic floor pieces—rugs made with the emotional depth of a painting and the structural integrity of master craftsmanship. Whether placed in a minimalist setting or a richly layered interior, it becomes the grounding element, adding warmth, poetic texture, and quiet gravitas.

"This is not a rug you choose from a shelf. It is a rug made for you. Slowly, intentionally, and with the deepest respect for the art of weaving."

Care guide

Silk

Silk rugs are luxurious, soft, and exhibit a beautiful sheen, often making them statement pieces in a room. However, they are more delicate than wool.

Care Tips:

  1. Gentle Cleaning: Avoid vacuuming with a high-powered vacuum. Use a handheld vacuum with a brushless attachment.
  2. Spot Cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a dry cloth. Avoid rubbing, as it can damage the fibers.
  3. Professional Cleaning: Always use professional cleaners specializing in silk rugs. Silk requires careful handling and should never be steam-cleaned.
  4. Low-Traffic Areas: Place silk rugs in low-medium traffic or decorative areas to preserve their beauty.

General Recommendations

  • Rug Pads: Use rug pads to prevent slipping and reduce wear.
  • Sun Protection: Minimize direct sunlight exposure by using curtains or UV-blocking window films.
  • Storage: If storing rugs, roll them with acid-free paper and keep them in a cool, dry place.

Wool

Wool is one of the most durable and versatile materials for rugs. It is naturally stain-resistant, resilient, and warm, making it a popular choice for high-traffic areas.

Care Tips:

  1. Regular Vacuuming: Use a suction-only vacuum to remove surface dirt. Avoid using the beater bar to prevent pulling fibers.
  2. Spot Cleaning: Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth. Use a mixture of mild detergent and water for stubborn stains, but test in a small, inconspicuous area first.
  3. Deep Cleaning: Professional cleaning every 3-5 years will keep the rug vibrant and fresh.
  4. Rotation: Rotate the rug every 6-12 months to ensure even wear.

General Recommendations

  • Rug Pads: Use rug pads to prevent slipping and reduce wear.
  • Sun Protection: Minimize direct sunlight exposure by using curtains or UV-blocking window films.
  • Storage: If storing rugs, roll them with acid-free paper and keep them in a cool, dry place.
