This antique Afghan rug, circa 1920, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind tribal carpet distinguished by its orderly field of octagonal gul motifs and finely drawn geometric borders. Its softly faded palette and crisp hand-knotted patterning give it a refined, collector-friendly presence with strong decorative versatility. An ideal foundation for a living room, dining room, or office.
Faded neutral tones of taupe, brown, ivory, camel, and charcoal, with a taupe field.
Although Afghanistan shares its western border with Iran, its rugs share no similarities. It is intersected by Baluch, Uzbec and Turkmen weavers and so have a Central Asian influence. The weavers are tribal and nomadic and often use the “Gul” or elephants foot design. They come in deep madders and rusts with black outlining. They sometimes use greens, yellows and blue in the accent colors.
