This traditional prayer rug features a rich red field adorned with geometric motifs that create a sense of sacred space and contemplation. The central mihrab design is framed by intricate border patterns in complementary tones of ivory and deep blue. The geometric elements are precisely rendered, showcasing the weaver's skill in maintaining symmetrical balance across the composition. The warm red foundation gives this piece both spiritual significance and decorative appeal.

Handcrafted in Afghanistan using time-honored techniques passed down through generations of skilled artisans. The rug is constructed entirely from 100% wool, likely sourced from the highland flocks around Ghazni, known for producing particularly resilient and lustrous fibers. Each knot is tied individually by hand, resulting in a density of 50-60 knots per square inch that ensures both durability and fine detail retention. This level of craftsmanship guarantees the rug will maintain its beauty and structural integrity for decades.

At 3' 1" x 4' 8", this prayer rug works beautifully as a devotional piece or decorative accent in entryways, beside beds, or in cozy reading corners. The compact proportions make it suitable for apartments and smaller rooms where a touch of traditional artistry is desired. This piece complements both Afghan rugs collections and fits perfectly within the popular 3 x 5 size category. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghanistan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
