Meticulously woven by tribal weavers, this piece features a remarkable landscape composition, illustrating mountains, mosques, houses, trees, and village life — an evocative visual narrative that reflects both cultural heritage and artistic imagination.

Each detail is rendered using natural hand-spun wool and vegetable dyes, producing warm shades of camel beige, brick red, olive green, and charcoal. The rug’s central imagery, framed by geometric floral borders, celebrates pastoral and architectural themes typical of Afghan pictorial rugs, which were traditionally woven as expressions of daily life and symbolic reflection.

The soft pile and tight weave highlight its craftsmanship, while its compact size makes it ideal for wall display, office decor, or intimate floor settings. The rug’s one-of-a-kind design ensures it stands out as a true collectible piece of folk art and weaving heritage.
