This blue Afghan prayer rug displays the traditional mihrab arch that frames the prayer space, rendered in deep navy with intricate geometric borders. The field features a classic stepped pattern leading toward the prayer niche, while complementary accents in ivory and burgundy create visual depth. The geometric motifs are precisely executed, with each element contributing to the rug's meditative quality and cultural significance.

Woven by skilled Afghan artisans using traditional hand-knotting techniques passed down through generations, this prayer carpet showcases 100% wool construction with 50-60 knots per square inch. The dense weaving ensures durability for daily use, while the natural Ghazni wool provides the lustrous texture that Afghan rugs are renowned for. This level of craftsmanship reflects centuries of weaving expertise from Afghanistan's rug-making regions.

At 3' 1" x 4' 10", this prayer rug fits perfectly beside a bed, in a hallway, or as a decorative accent in smaller spaces. The compact size makes it ideal for apartments or any room where you want to introduce authentic handwoven artistry without overwhelming the space. This piece complements both traditional and contemporary interiors, joining our curated collection of Afghan rugs and 3 x 5 rugs.
