This authentic Afghan prayer rug displays the traditional mihrab arch at its center, framed by intricate geometric borders in deep burgundy, navy blue, and warm ivory tones. The prayer niche features a classic lamp motif suspended within the sacred space, while the main field showcases a rich tapestry of traditional Islamic patterns. The color palette creates a meditative atmosphere with its harmonious blend of earthy and jewel tones flowing throughout the geometric framework.

Handcrafted by skilled Afghan weavers using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this prayer carpet represents centuries of devotional rug making tradition. The 100% wool construction utilizes fine Ghazni highland wool known for its durability and lustrous finish, while the dense 50-60 knots per square inch weaving ensures lasting beauty. Natural dyes create the rich color depth that will only improve with age and use.

At 2' 10" x 4' 9", this prayer rug fits perfectly beside a bed, in a meditation space, or as a decorative accent in hallways and entryways. The compact size makes it ideal for apartments and smaller rooms where you want to introduce authentic Islamic art and craftsmanship. This piece complements both traditional and contemporary interiors with its timeless geometric appeal.
