This wild antique 1900s Persian Afshar rug is a remarkable piece that hails from the legendary Afshar tribe, renowned for their masterful rug-making techniques that have been passed down through generations. Prepare to be mesmerized by the intricate detailing that adorns every inch of this masterpiece. Delicate animal elements, gracefully depicted as birds and fish, weave a tapestry of nature's wonders. The Herati motif, a hallmark of Persian rug artistry, celebrates the harmony between man and nature.
These vibrant hues, shocks of golden yellow and wonderful greens, extracted from nature's bountiful palette, bring life and warmth to this enchanting rug. Discover the subtleties of abrash, a delightful variation in color that occurs when the weaver introduces a new batch of vegetable-dyed wool. The continuous geometric floral art that adorns the final border is a mesmerizing design that echoes the rhythms of nature itself.
Handwoven with the finest vegetable-dyed wool, this rug not only exudes a remarkable aesthetic, but also embodies sustainability and a deep respect for nature. Preserved in excellent condition with its tribal allure and rich cultural significance, this fantastic rug will be a focal point in any space, infusing it with a sense of warmth, authenticity, and unparalleled beauty.
