🔗 Shipping, duties & taxes

A durable, authentic tribal area rug from Northern Afghanistan in excellent condition, featuring rows and rows of detailed geometric stripes.

Handwoven in wool on cotton in terracottas and reds, using a mix of flatweave and ciçim brocade techniques to create the patterned stripes. 

Fun Fact: The “S” motifs are a traditional highly revered protective symbol meant to ward off the "Evil Eye" or negative energies. They essentially act as a protective shield woven along the structural boundaries of the rug.

Because of its tight weave this kilim would be ideal as an area rug in a high-traffic area such as a living room. 

Size: 275cm x 180cm (109" x 70")

The rug is measured in the middle because the ends are slightly different widths. This slight geometric irregularity is the direct result of changing weaver tension on a traditional upright vertical loom. It serves as highly desirable physical proof of its completely handwoven, non-industrial origin.

All our rugs have been cleaned, repaired and moth-treated. 

Handmade in Afghanistan, late 20th Century vintage
