About
A simpler version of the Khal Mohammedi, the Afghan Aaqcha is a highly coveted collection, and offers an entry-level price point within the Oriental rug family.
Derived from regions in Northern Afghanistan, these hand knotted Oriental rugs are often expressed in hues of red with its signature göls (elephant like pattern) and octagonal repeating motifs, woven using a combination of wool, goat hair and horsehair.
These large elephant foot patterns create a unique and individual design, with no two designs being the same. This level of uniqueness, combined with their softness of feel, makes these rugs a firm favourite with homeowners and collectors alike.
Please Note: The various sizes of these rugs are due to the rugs being hand woven.

Writer's block
Ours is about 3 feet by 3 feet, and on our left is the account's block. The marketing block is down the hall.
We're joking. Obviously.
Ours is at least 5 by 5, and on Wednesdays we're allowed to write in coffee shops to maintain the illusion that we're "successful" and "writerly".
Coming up with a write up for the simple sake of a write up does, however, become difficult when we're staring complete lack of creativity right in the face. But apparently asking management to cancel all the deals for the day isn't a viable fix.
As they so delicately put it, it'd be like a comedian having the option to suddenly cancel a show if they're not feeling up to it. Not on our watch, they said. You'll do a write up whether you like it or not, they said. And be funny, they said.
So here we are, doing a write up and being funny.
