A hand-woven rug from Afghanistan featuring a prominent geometric and zoomorphic folk art design, heavily characteristic of nomadic or village weaving styles like Qashqai or Caucasian traditions. The center contains a compact, cross-axial or diamond-shaped floral medallion with extended geometric pointers dividing the inner field. Surrounding the central medallion are four stylized, colorful birds (roosters or peacocks) facing inward, rendered in tones of pink, terracotta, and soft yellow. The deep navy-black central field is densely populated with small tribal symbols, including multicolored diamonds, rosettes, and miniature geometric geometric shapes. The primary inner border features a dense terracotta/red ground with recurring repeating floral scroll elements, enclosed by a distinctive outer border featuring alternating geometric sawtooth or abstract patterns in cream, sage green, and blue.
