At 290 × 61 cm, it suits a hallway runner's role well. It also looks at home beside the bed. A one-of-a-kind piece, it gives a room character of its own and holds its value long after short-lived trends have passed.

Origin

Goltogh (also Gholtogh, Goltog, Gholtog, Gholtug) rugs are knotted by settled Kurds. In quality and texture they are close to the Bijar. Their firm, hard handle comes – just as with the Bijar – from the special foundation weave. The cotton warp is stretched very tightly. The weft is beaten down extremely firmly. The knotting is done with the Turkish knot.

Goltogh rugs are usually held in dark colours. Almost always a slender hexagon dominates the central field, its points at the top and bottom sometimes broken up by floral ornament. The filling motifs – blossoms, leaves and occasionally animals – are strongly stylised.

Material

The pile of this Goltogh was hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by gently shearing sheep. It is a renewable, natural raw material with a whole range of impressive properties: thanks to the wool's natural lanolin content, the surface repels droplets of water and is naturally protected against dirt. Wool also provides excellent thermal insulation, has a balancing effect on the indoor climate and absorbs sound.

The weft and warp threads of this Goltogh are made of cotton. This versatile material is tear-resistant and elastic, which makes it particularly suitable for a hard-wearing foundation weave.

A note on the photos

The colours of this rug change depending on which side you look at it from. It all depends on whether the light falls with the nap of the pile or against it. That is why we have photographed the rug from several angles.

Child labour? No thanks.

Child labour? No thanks. Children belong in school, not at a knotting frame or a loom. For us it therefore goes without saying that we only offer rugs made under fair conditions and without child labour.

We attach particular importance to humane working conditions and tolerate no child labour at any of our producers. Thank you for helping us to ensure fair conditions.

That is why we support the initiative Care & Fair against child labour in the rug trade.
