This Afghan prayer rug displays the traditional mihrab design with a deep burgundy field framed by geometric borders in cream and navy. The central prayer niche features intricate tribal motifs that create a sense of reverence and focus, while the rich color palette of wine reds, ivory, and deep blues gives the piece both warmth and dignity. Fine details in the border work showcase the weaver's skill in balancing pattern density with visual clarity.

Crafted by skilled artisans in Afghanistan using traditional hand-knotting techniques passed down through generations, this prayer rug represents authentic tribal weaving at its finest. Made from durable Ghazni wool known for its resilience and natural luster, each knot was tied by hand to create a dense, long-lasting foundation. The use of natural dyes ensures the colors will age gracefully while maintaining their depth and character over decades of use.

At 2'8" x 4'3", this rug works beautifully as a personal prayer mat or decorative accent in intimate spaces like studies, bedrooms, or entryways. The compact size makes it ideal for layering or positioning beside furniture in traditional, eclectic, or globally-inspired interiors. This piece joins our curated selection of oriental rugs sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
