A finely hand-woven rug from Afghanistan, reminiscent of classic Northwest Persian Serapi and Heriz designs. The main canvas is an ivory/cream field adorned with large-scale, highly stylized geometric floral branch motifs, serrated leaves, and an open, symmetrical framework. A prominent, deep navy blue main border frames the rug, decorated with alternating geometric turtle or rosette motifs and connecting vines. Narrow guard borders flank this in red and ivory.The palette balances bold, naturally sourced dyes, including crimson red, deep navy blue, terracotta/apricot, medium blue, and olive green, against a clean ivory backdrop.
