This traditional prayer rug displays the classic mihrab design with a rich field showcasing geometric motifs in warm earth tones. The intricate border frames a central prayer niche decorated with detailed floral and angular patterns. A lively mix of deep reds, navy blues, and cream creates visual depth while maintaining the reverent character essential to prayer rugs. The geometric precision reflects centuries of weaving tradition passed down through Afghan artisan families.

Crafted in Afghanistan using time-honored hand-knotting techniques, this rug features 100% wool construction with a substantial 50-60 knots per square inch. Afghan weavers source fine Ghazni wool known for its durability and natural lanolin content, which helps repel dirt and moisture. The dense knotting ensures this piece will maintain its beauty through daily use while developing the subtle patina that makes hand-knotted rugs family heirlooms. Natural dyes create the rich coloration that will remain vibrant for generations.

At 3' 1" x 4' 9", this rug works beautifully in bedrooms, studies, or meditation spaces where its compact size provides comfort underfoot without overwhelming the room. The traditional design complements both Middle Eastern decor and contemporary interiors seeking authentic character.
