This prayer rug displays the classic mihrab arch framed by intricate geometric borders in warm earth tones. The field combines deep reds, navy blues, and ivory accents that create a harmonious palette rooted in traditional Afghan weaving. Delicate floral motifs fill the prayer niche while stepped geometric patterns form the surrounding border work. The overall effect is both reverent and visually compelling.

Handcrafted by skilled Afghan weavers using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this piece showcases the region's mastery of geometric design. The foundation is built entirely from 100% wool, likely sourced from the hardy sheep of the Afghan highlands, known for producing durable fibers that age beautifully. The tight hand-knotting at 50-60 knots per square inch ensures longevity and precise pattern definition that will remain crisp for decades.

At 3' 3" x 5' 3", this rug works beautifully in bedrooms, studies, or meditation spaces where its compact size won't overwhelm the room. The proportions suit smaller seating areas or can serve as an accent piece in larger rooms alongside traditional or contemporary furnishings. Our Afghan rugs collection and 3 x 5 size range offer similar quality pieces. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghanistan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
