About the Item

An Authentic Hand-Knotted Afghan Tribal Rug This magnificent oversized area rug is a genuine piece of nomadic history, a masterpiece of authentic Afghan Tribal weaving. It carries within its fibers the stories and symbols of a people with a legendary weaving heritage. Masterfully Hand-Knotted from pure wool, this is not just a rug; it is a soulful and timeless work of art that brings a sense of history and grounded elegance to a home. Design & Style Design: The design is a classic example of Afghan weaving, featuring a field of repeating geometric medallions known as "guls." In Tribal culture, these guls are not just decorative; they are the emblem of the tribe, a signature of the weaver's identity and heritage. Style: While specifically Afghan, its powerful geometric language shares a common artistic soul with other great nomadic traditions, including the Moroccan style. Its timeless appeal also allows it to be a stunning Transitional piece, grounding a modern space with authentic character. Technique & Material Weaving Technique: This rug is a testament to the incredible durability and artistry of traditional Afghan weaving. It is meticulously Hand-Knotted, a premier technique that creates a dense, strong, and incredibly resilient pile. Material: Crafted from 100% hardy Afghan Wool, renowned for its strength, rich texture, and ability to take dyes with remarkable depth, this rug is built to withstand generations of daily life. A Palette of Earthy Serenity Color: The color palette is a harmonious and calming blend of soft, earthy tones, likely achieved with natural vegetable dyes. A warm field of sandy rose or pale terracotta provides a welcoming foundation. Accents: The intricate "gul" medallions and borders are rendered in a sophisticated combination of dusty slate blue, soft cream, and dark brown accents.
