Mohair Rugs & Angora Wool Rugs: Handcrafted Luxury & Sustainable Elegance

Updated: Jul 26

Mohair Rugs: Where Heritage Meets Luxury

Mohair, the luxurious fiber harvested from the coat of the Angora goat, has captivated humans for centuries. Its unique properties – softness, luster, and durability – have made it a coveted material for textiles. In the realm of rugs, mohair offers an unparalleled experience, combining artistry, tradition, and eco-consciousness.

The Allure of Mohair: A Fiber Steeped in History

Mohair, derived from the Arabic word "mukhayyar" (meaning "chosen" or "select"), has been treasured for centuries for its exceptional qualities. This luxurious fiber, sourced from Angora goats, boasts a natural luster, incredible strength, and a remarkable ability to absorb dyes, resulting in vibrant and long-lasting colors.


At PiHue Creations, we source the finest mohair yarn from sustainable farms, ensuring ethical and eco-friendly practices. Our skilled artisans then meticulously hand-weave each rug, infusing it with their expertise and passion.


Mohair is a truly exceptional fiber. Its natural luster creates an iridescent sheen that dances in the light, adding a touch of opulence to any space. Unlike other wools, mohair is exceptionally soft and silky, providing unparalleled comfort underfoot. Its inherent strength and resilience ensure that mohair rugs are not only luxurious but also durable, capable of withstanding the test of time.


A Tapestry of Tradition: The Art of Mohair Rug Weaving


The art of rug making is deeply rooted in cultural heritage, and mohair rugs carry this tradition forward. Skilled artisans, often working with techniques passed down through generations, transform the raw fiber into intricate masterpieces. Each rug is a testament to the dedication and expertise of these craftspeople.


From the nomadic tribes of the Middle East to the weavers of the Anatolian plateau, mohair has played a significant role in rug making. The rich history of these cultures is reflected in the designs and patterns that adorn mohair rugs. Whether it's the geometric motifs of Persian carpets or the intricate floral patterns of Turkish rugs, mohair adds a layer of sophistication and elegance to these timeless designs.


The art of weaving mohair rugs dates back centuries, with deep roots in diverse cultures across the Middle East, Central Asia, and Africa. These rugs are not merely decorative objects; they are living testaments to the heritage and artistry of the communities that create them.


Each PiHue Creations mohair rug tells a story, with intricate designs inspired by nature, mythology, and everyday life. The weaving process itself is a labor of love, requiring immense skill, patience, and attention to detail.
