About the Item

Handwoven in wool, originating from Afghanistan circa 1950-1960, its 2x6 size and design may signify origins as a table design—sometimes used for dining given their durability compared to other flatweaves. On the Design: Drawing on Afghan tribal sensibilities, this archaic piece of art exhibiting an old-world charm has a construction that is especially formidable among flatweaves, and it’s aged beautifully in kind. Keen eyes alike will note the deep aubergine purple, navy blue and bright red underscore a play of open field design and minimal geometric borders—makes for both the versatile and personal look it offers. Connoisseurs may further admire the subtle sense of movement that its color variations lend the geometry—a subdued, but intriguing departure from traditional area rugs of its period. It’s a fine play of rustic geometric patterns in a reserved, sophisticated manner, and its size offers vast design applications. Condition: This vintage Afghan tribal kilim rug enjoys good condition for its age and origin. It is a very collectible piece, ready for the floor and size is also well suited to wall-hanging tapestry projects and other decorative purposes.
