This Afghan prayer rug displays the classic mihrab design with its distinctive pointed arch framing the prayer field. The intricate geometric borders feature traditional motifs in warm earth tones, while the central field showcases delicate floral patterns that catch the light beautifully. The rich color palette combines deep burgundy, navy blue, and ivory accents that create a sense of reverence and tranquility.

Handwoven by skilled Afghan artisans using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this prayer carpet represents authentic craftsmanship at its finest. The dense hand-knotted construction uses premium Ghazni wool known for its durability and natural sheen, while traditional vegetable dyes ensure the colors will remain vibrant for decades. Each knot is tied individually, creating the tight weave that distinguishes genuine Afghan rugs from machine-made alternatives.

At 2' 7" x 4' 6", this prayer rug works beautifully in personal meditation spaces, study areas, or as a decorative accent in hallways and bedrooms. The compact size makes it ideal for apartment living or smaller rooms where you want to introduce authentic oriental rugs without overwhelming the space. This 3 x 5 size category offers versatility for both functional use and wall display. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
