About the Item

Antique Afghan area rug handwoven from the finest sheep’s wool and colored with all-natural vegetable dyes that are safe for humans and pets. It’s a traditional Afghan design featuring diamond medallions in brown and pink over a beige field. It resembles a tribal motif which makes it a beautiful piece for decorating contemporary and rustic spaces. It has a dimension of 5’5” x 10’1” which is ideal for living areas, bedrooms and dining rooms. Afghan rugs are traditionally made in Afghanistan but since many of the tribes that made them were nomadic, it’s not surprising that the Afghan rug weaving style traveled far from its roots. In fact, many Afghan rugs are being made in Pakistan and other nearby regions. Common motifs seen in Afghan rugs are ‘Gul’ or repeating octagonal shapes and geometric patterns. Red is the favored color of the field with variations such as ochre and beige.

Traditional Hand-Knotted Afghan Rug
Located in Dallas, TX
Afghan rugs, often known as Afghan carpets, are hand-woven rugs that are historically created in Afghanistan, though many are also weaved by Afghan refugees in Pakistan. Afghan rugs received the international prizes in 2008, 2013, and 2014, which are hosted yearly in Hamburg, Germany. Various ethnic groups, primarily Turkmen, assemble Afghan rugs in northern and western Afghanistan. [1] The Shindand or Adraskan (named after local Afghan cities) is one of the most unusual and distinctive of all oriental rugs, produced in the Herat Province of western Afghanistan. Their hallmark appearance is bizarrely elongated human and animal designs. Carpets are sold all over Afghanistan, although the majority are sold in Mazar-e Sharif. Afghan rugs are traditionally classified into two types: Turkman carpets and Baluchi...
