11'11" x 15' Chobi Peshawar Rug | Beige All-Over Floral Design | Hand-Knotted Wool, New

This is a quiet, room-filling piece: 11'11" x 15' of hand-knotted wool in a beige and sand palette, drawn with an all-over floral repeat that only reveals itself when you stand over it. Nothing shouts. The drawing is soft, the outlines are apricot and rust rather than black, and the ground reads almost like raw linen from a few feet away, which is exactly why decorators keep ordering this kind of Oriental rug for large open rooms. It is new, in excellent condition, one of a kind, and ships with a certificate of authenticity confirming it as a genuine hand-knotted piece. At this footprint it belongs with the true oversize rugs, big enough to carry a full seating group with all legs on and still show a margin of floor.

Design and Motifs

The field carries a classical all-over floral composition with no central medallion: large lobed palmettes and multi-petal rosettes float on a lazy vine that curves and doubles back on itself, linked by long serrated leaves. Look at the close-up photos and you can count the layers inside a single rosette, an outlined heart, a ring of small petals, then a fan of feathered tips drawn in a deeper rust line. Because the design repeats rather than centers, the rug reads well from any doorway and takes furniture placement without losing its balance. Three borders frame it: a wide main band of alternating blossoms and leaf sprays, flanked by narrow guard stripes of a running floral meander. The corners resolve cleanly, the fringe is tidy and even, and the whole layout has the generous, unhurried spacing that makes a 15 foot rug feel calm instead of busy.

A Beige Field With Apricot, Gold and Sage

The ground is a warm oatmeal beige that shifts with the light, closer to sand under daylight and closer to soft camel under lamps, with a slight abrash that gives the field depth rather than flatness. The pattern is worked in apricot and soft gold, the two tones that carry most of the drawing, with thin terracotta and rust outlines that keep the flowers legible against the pale ground. Scattered through the leaves are small touches of faint sage green, visible in the detail shots where a leaf tip or the eye of a rosette picks up that cool note, and they are what stop the palette from going monotone. Ivory highlights sit along the guard stripes and in the fringe. It is a genuinely neutral rug, easy alongside cream upholstery, oak floors, rattan and warm white walls, and one of the safer choices in beige and ivory rugs for a room you do not want to redecorate around.

Chobi Weaving in Peshawar

Chobi rugs are woven in and around Peshawar in northwest Pakistan, where weaving families have worked for generations and where the best contemporary hand-knotted production in the region is concentrated. Chobi refers to the muted, wood-toned palette these workshops built their reputation on, deliberately soft colors set against highland wool that takes a gentle sheen as it is walked on. The construction here is honest workshop work: a firm cotton foundation, a hand-knotted wool pile with good body, and a back that shows clean, regular rows when the corner is turned over. Weaving a piece this size takes a wide loom, several weavers side by side and many months of work, which is why oversize Chobi rugs are made in far smaller numbers than the standard 8x10 and 9x12 sizes. This one came off the loom new, has never been on a floor, and has the even pile height and crisp selvedges of a rug that has not yet started its life.
