About the Item

Afghan Moroccan Area Rug, The Desert Sun: An Authentic Hand-Knotted Afghan Tribal Rug This magnificent oversized area rug is a masterpiece of authentic Afghan Tribal weaving, a piece that radiates the warmth and soulful history of a nomadic heritage. It features a powerful, geometric design and a stunning, sun-drenched color palette that brings a sense of worldly character to any home. Masterfully Hand-Knotted from pure wool, this is a timeless work of art for those who appreciate genuine, artisanal craftsmanship. Design & Style Design: The design is a stunning example of classic Tribal art, featuring a bold, central column of interconnected geometric medallions. This powerful and symmetrical design is deeply rooted in ancient traditions and symbolic language. Style: While a classic Afghan style, its bold geometry shares a common artistic soul with other great nomadic traditions, including the Moroccan. Its timeless appeal also allows it to be a stunning Transitional piece, grounding a modern space with authentic soul. 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 and rich texture, this rug is built to withstand a lifetime of use. A Palette of Warmth and Earth Color: The color palette is a rich and harmonious blend of warm, earthy tones. A dominant field of terracotta orange is beautifully balanced by large areas of cool, dusty slate blue. Accents: The intricate motifs and borders are rendered in a sophisticated combination of warm taupe and creamy ivory, creating a palette that is both vibrant and elegantly balanced.
