This antique Afghan rug, circa 1930, is a hand-knotted one-of-a-kind textile distinguished by a softly faded camel field and orderly rows of geometric octagonal guls. Its finely detailed tribal motifs and layered diamond-pattern borders create a restrained, collector-friendly palette of taupe, ivory, and muted slate. An ideal centerpiece for a living room, dining area, or bedroom.
Faded neutral tones of camel, taupe, slate, ivory, brown, charcoal, and beige, with a camel 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.
