This red Afghan prayer rug displays the classic mihrab design with geometric borders in traditional Islamic motifs. The central prayer niche features intricate patterns in deep red, complemented by navy and ivory accents that create a rich, meditative composition. The geometric border work frames the piece with precision, showcasing the weaver's attention to detail and cultural heritage.

Handcrafted in Afghanistan using traditional techniques passed down through generations, this prayer rug is woven from 100% wool with a dense 50-60 knots per square inch construction. Afghan artisans use locally sourced Ghazni wool, prized for its durability and natural luster that improves with age. The hand-knotted foundation ensures this piece will maintain its structural integrity and visual appeal for decades.

At 2' 7" x 4' 8", this prayer rug works beautifully in intimate spaces such as studies, bedrooms, or dedicated prayer areas.
