Vintage Afghan Ersari Room Size Rug in Geometric Gul Pattern in Camel Hair, Navy
Located in Barrington, IL
A striking vintage Afghan Ersari rug, handwoven in the mid-20th century, featuring an allover geometric "Gul" (flower) pattern—an iconic motif in Turkmen weaving traditions. This room-size piece showcases a sophisticated and earthy palette, with rich octagonal medallions in deep navy and midnight blue set against a luminous camelhair field. The rug is woven with high-quality wool that exhibits a silky sheen, creating a subtle shimmer that changes with the light—an effect often associated with finer silk-blend weaves. The interplay of warm neutrals and dark geometrics lends the piece a grounded yet refined presence, making it equally suitable for rustic, contemporary, or minimalist interiors. Its bold pattern, rare color combination, and luxurious texture make it a desirable choice for designers seeking a foundational piece with timeless appeal and cultural depth.
