This Shikargah rug presents a captivating hunting scene rendered in traditional geometric patterns across a rich green field. The design features stylized animals and birds woven into repeating motifs that create visual depth and movement. The color palette combines the dominant green with warm earth tones and subtle accent colors that give the piece its lively character. The intricate border work frames the central field with complementary geometric patterns.

Handcrafted by skilled Afghan weavers using time-honored techniques, this rug showcases the superior quality of Ghazni wool on a cotton foundation. The 80-90 knots per square inch density ensures exceptional durability and precise pattern definition. Afghan artisans have perfected the Shikargah design over generations, using natural dyes that age beautifully and maintain their vibrancy. The wool on cotton construction provides the ideal balance of softness underfoot and structural integrity.

At 5' 9" x 7' 9", this rug works beautifully in medium-sized living rooms, dining areas, or master bedrooms. The proportions suit furniture arrangements with sofas, dining tables, or beds while leaving appropriate floor space around the perimeter. The traditional design complements both classic and contemporary interiors.
