This prayer rug displays a traditional mihrab design against a deep blue field, with geometric borders framing the sacred prayer space. The central medallion features intricate angular motifs in contrasting ivory and burgundy tones. Small repeating patterns fill the field, creating visual texture while maintaining the contemplative quality essential to prayer rugs. The rich blue ground provides a calming foundation for the geometric elements that draw the eye toward the prayer niche.

Handcrafted by skilled Afghan weavers using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this rug is constructed from 100% wool with a tight 50-60 knots per square inch. The high-quality Ghazni wool provides excellent durability and a lustrous finish that will develop a beautiful patina over time. Natural dyes create the vibrant yet harmonious color palette that characterizes authentic Afghan textiles.
