This tradition has been considered a signature of Bahtiyari identity since the 19th century. Afghan artisans weave the same design using Ghazni wool and natural dyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy a Single-Piece Handwoven Afghan Carpet\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUniqueness:\u003c\/strong\u003e There is only one of this carpet; the same knot rhythm and dye batch cannot be repeated.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDurability of natural dyes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Unlike synthetic aniline, root dyes do not fade; they only soften over time.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eGhazni wool:\u003c\/strong\u003e Long-fiber wool from high-altitude sheep with high lanolin content; provides natural stain resistance and silky shine.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAsymmetric Persian knot:\u003c\/strong\u003e Finer detail resolution and sharper motif edges compared to the Turkish (Gordes) knot.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInvestment value:\u003c\/strong\u003e Genuine naturally dyed Afghan carpets gain value through generations of use.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\n\u003ch2\u003eColor and Pattern\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDeep navy background divided into square panels; each panel features a different motif: tree of life, bouquet of flowers from a vase, boteh drop, bird figure, stylized rosette.
