This teal Afghan Oriental rug showcases the distinctive texture and depth of the Onyx collection's signature oxidation process. The geometric patterns emerge from a rich jewel-toned foundation where selective areas of wool pile have been artfully removed, creating dimensional contrasts across the field. The dominant teal coloring shifts subtly between deeper and lighter tones, producing an almost iridescent quality that changes with room lighting. The precise geometric motifs are framed by complementary borders that enhance the rug's sophisticated presence.

Handcrafted by skilled Afghan weavers using traditional hand-knotting techniques passed down through generations, this wool rug represents centuries of textile expertise. The dense hand-knotted construction uses premium Ghazni wool known for its durability and natural luster. The intricate oxidation process used to achieve the Onyx collection's characteristic look requires exceptional skill, as weavers must carefully control the chemical treatment to create the desired textural variations without compromising the rug's structural integrity.

At 5' 5" x 7' 7", this piece works beautifully in medium-sized living rooms, dining areas, or master bedrooms where it can anchor furniture groupings without overwhelming the space. The sophisticated teal palette and geometric design complement both contemporary and traditional interiors.
