The Persian Rug Afshar measures 1.75 by 1.3 metres and is a fine example of tribal craftsmanship from the Afshar people of Southeast Iran. Woven from high-quality wool, this handwoven rug features a rich navy blue and ruby red background accented with beige highlights, showcasing geometric medallions and distinctive bird motifs that cover the entire field.
Its thick, solid wool pile rests on a durable cotton foundation, ensuring longevity and resilience under regular use. The rug’s design incorporates traditional tribal elements, with decorated borders framing the vibrant central patterns. Natural variations in colour, known as "abrash," appear as subtle stripes due to the use of organic dyes and differing wool batches, adding depth and character to the piece.
This vintage Persian rug is sustainably crafted, using pure wool and vegetable dyes. It has been carefully maintained, including washing and repairs where necessary, to preserve its condition. Signs of gentle wear are present, reflecting its authentic age and contributing to its unique charm.
Ideal for adding warmth and cultural depth to living rooms, bedrooms, or study areas, this rug blends traditional artistry with practical durability. Regular care will help maintain its beauty and longevity.
