Origin & Cultural Heritage

Filpay rugs are rooted in traditional Afghan and Turkmen weaving traditions, where distinctive large octagonal motifs — often called “Elephant’s Foot” — are central in the design. These rugs reflect the craftsmanship of tribal weavers from regions such as northern Afghanistan and Central Asia, where the visual language of the patterns has been passed down through generations. The name Filpay itself refers to this iconic motif.
