This Afghan prayer rug displays a classic mihrab design against a rich red field, with the traditional prayer niche outlined in deep burgundy and accented with geometric motifs. The central medallion features intricate tribal patterns that draw the eye upward, while the border showcases repeating diamond and chevron designs in complementary earth tones. The warm red palette creates an inviting focal point that speaks to centuries of weaving tradition.

Handcrafted by skilled Afghan weavers using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this piece is constructed entirely of high-quality Ghazni wool known for its durability and natural luster. The hand-knotted construction ensures each knot is individually tied, creating a dense, resilient weave that will maintain its beauty for decades. Natural dyes provide the deep, saturated colors that develop character and richness over time.

At 2'8" x 4'8", this prayer rug works beautifully in personal meditation spaces, as a bedside accent, or in entryways where its compact size won't overwhelm the area. The traditional design complements both contemporary and classic interiors, particularly those featuring warm wood tones or neutral palettes. This piece fits naturally within any collection of oriental rugs where authentic craftsmanship is valued. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
