This antique Afghan rug, circa 1920, is a handmade, one-of-a-kind tribal carpet distinguished by its orderly lattice of octagonal gul motifs and richly patterned guard borders. Its hand-knotted character is expressed through a beautifully faded palette of brown, taupe, ivory, and charcoal, giving the geometric drawing a soft, timeworn elegance that reads as both collected and refined. An ideal centerpiece for a living room, dining room, or office.
Faded neutral tones of brown, taupe, ivory, charcoal, camel, and slate, 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.
