How can I spot a real Afghan rug?
1 Answer
To spot an authentic Afghan rug, first check the knots on the back. The finer the knots, the better the quality. Afghan rugs are also 100% wool, which doesnt light when touched by flame, though it would be better to have a professional test the authenticity than trying this at home. Find an assortment of Afghan rugs from some of the worlds top sellers on 1stDibs.
