About the Item

A striking vintage Afghan tribal rug featuring a bold geometric gul design arranged in a repeating octagonal lattice. Measuring 4 feet 2 inches by 6 feet 4 inches, this hand-knotted wool rug showcases classic Turkoman influence, with a warm palette of rust, ivory, soft blue, and charcoal. Each gul (elephant’s foot motif) is finely detailed with tribal elements, bordered by narrow diamond motifs and subtle abrash that reflects its handwoven origin. The rug’s compact size and distinct visual rhythm make it a strong decorative statement—ideal for layered boho interiors, entryways, or eclectic accent settings.
