About the Item

This Mid-20th century Persian Afshar rug, measuring 3' 9" x 5' 3", presents a striking tribal design that highlights the distinctive artistry of southern Persia. The field features a series of connected lozenges arranged vertically along the central axis, each enclosing geometric floral elements and stylized botanical motifs. The earthy palette of warm browns, soft tans, and muted blues creates a natural harmony that reflects the nomadic origins of Afshar weavers. Surrounding the field, the borders are richly articulated with a variety of angular devices and stepped motifs, offering a dynamic contrast to the interior’s more structured medallions. Secondary motifs, including abstracted blossoms and hooked designs, provide a rhythmic balance across the composition. Afshar rugs are celebrated for their versatility, often blending village spontaneity with sophisticated geometric precision, and this example embodies those qualities. Its compact size and tribal character make it especially suitable as a decorative accent or collector’s piece.
