This rug is dyed in shades of red and turquoise. It is known worldwide for its high quality, durability and distinctive design. Afghan rugs often use geometric patterns, which can be quite intricate. Typical motifs include Gul, floral symbols and various forms of rhombuses, octagons and stars. Animal, plant and everyday life scenes also appear in some rugs, although abstract and geometric patterns dominate. Afghan rugs are known for using deep, intense colours such as red, burgundy, dark brown, black and shades of blue and green. Natural dyes are traditionally used, which gives the colours of the rugs durability and a distinctive look.

The rug is in original vintage condition. It has signs of age, losses in the fleece. The fringes are worn in places, but should be remembered that the characteristic feature of original Persian rugs is their imperfections. Before shipping, the rug will be professionally cleaned and ready for use.
