This Afghan prayer rug displays the classic mihrab arch in deep burgundy tones, framed by intricate geometric borders that create a sense of reverence and focus. The field features traditional tribal motifs woven in a rich palette of navy, burgundy, and cream, with subtle accents of gold threading throughout. The prayer niche is distinctly outlined, showing the skilled craftsmanship of Afghan tribal weavers who have perfected these sacred designs over generations.

Hand-knotted in Afghanistan using traditional techniques passed down through families, this rug showcases the exceptional quality of Ghazni highland wool known for its durability and natural luster. Afghan tribal weavers create these prayer rugs with particular care, understanding their spiritual significance and ensuring each knot contributes to both beauty and longevity. The natural dyes used in the weaving process will age gracefully, developing a beautiful patina over time.

At 2' 8" x 4' 8", this prayer rug works beautifully in bedrooms, studies, or as a meditation space in larger rooms. Its compact size makes it ideal for apartments or smaller homes where you want to incorporate authentic oriental rugs without overwhelming the space.
