This Afghan Waziri rug displays a classic medallion pattern with intricate geometric borders that frame the central field. The design features a harmonious blend of warm reds, deep blues, and creamy ivory tones that create visual depth across the wool surface. Traditional motifs fill the spaces around the medallion, showcasing the weaver's skill in balancing dense patterning with readable composition. The rich color palette brings both warmth and sophistication to any interior.

Handcrafted by skilled Afghan artisans using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this rug represents the enduring Waziri weaving tradition.

Natural dyes contribute to the authentic character and subtle color variations.
