This vintage Afghan hand-woven oversized kilim rug is a magnificent example of tribal artistry and large-scale craftsmanship. Expertly handmade from 100% natural wool, this palace-size flatweave showcases a traditional Ghelmori diamond lattice design, interwoven with symbolic borders representing harmony, unity, and protection — motifs deeply rooted in Afghan weaving heritage.

Each thread is naturally dyed using vegetable-based pigments, resulting in a soft, organic finish and lasting vibrancy. The rug’s flatweave construction ensures durability, flexibility, and full reversibility — a hallmark of genuine Afghan kilims.
