About the Item

This Mid-20th century Persian Afshar rug, measuring 3' 7" x 4' 10", is a striking example of tribal weaving traditions from southern Persia. Afshar rugs are celebrated for their bold character, and this piece demonstrates that heritage with its compact format and distinctive aesthetic. The field is filled with a dense, repetitive pattern of small boteh and diagonal latticework, creating a mesmerizing rhythm that draws the eye inward. The earthy palette of soft browns, muted grays, and deep charcoal tones provides a grounded foundation, while subtle ivory and light highlights add depth and articulation. The narrow inner borders frame the central field neatly, while the outer floral border introduces a delicate sense of movement, balancing the otherwise geometric composition. This rug reflects the nomadic sensibility of Afshar weavers, combining durability with artistry. Its size makes it versatile for intimate spaces, serving equally well as a centerpiece or accent piece with timeless Persian tribal charm.
