About the Item

This vintage Afghan rug features a striking allover arrangement of classic octagonal gul medallions set against a rich madder red field. Deep indigo, warm camel, and touches of lapis and ivory accent the bold geometry, reinforcing the tribal character inherent in Turkmen-inspired designs. The border showcases a stepped diamond motif that frames the composition with rhythmic precision. Hand-knotted with a dense, resilient pile, this piece embodies the durability and authenticity that Afghan weavings are known for. Its vibrant palette and graphic impact make it a powerful anchor in both rustic and modern interiors.
