This antique Afghan runner, circa 1940, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind piece with a beautifully time-softened palette and a classic tribal geometric design. A sequence of octagonal gul motifs runs the length of the field, framed by understated borders that showcase the rug’s hand-knotted character and refined aged patina. Its elongated format makes it an elegant choice for a hallway, entryway, or narrow kitchen.
Faded neutral tones of ivory, taupe, beige, camel, and sand, with a ivory 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.
