Each square contains a unique motif—ranging from boteh forms, tribal medallions, stylized florals, palmettes, and geometric animal-inspired elements—giving the piece a rich storytelling character.

Woven with natural dye colors, the palette includes deep navy, brick red, rust, sky blue, ivory, and soft earth tones. These traditional dye shades connect the rug to historic weaving traditions from the Shiraz, Heriz, Karabagh, and Kuba regions of Persia and the Caucasus.

The hand-knotted texture and crisp detailing reflect the skill of Afghan artisans who continue classical weaving methods while incorporating the bold geometry and small-format artistry typical of Qashqai and Caucasian nomadic carpets. This versatile size works beautifully in living rooms, bedrooms, libraries, and collectors’ interiors seeking an authentic tribal aesthetic.
