Afghan Pardah (4.5 x 6.7)ft

Afghan rugs are handwoven in northern and western Afghanistan, by various ethnic groups, mainly by Turkmen. A mix of various vegetable and other natural dyes are used to produce the rich colors displayed on these rugs. These rugs are mostly of medium sizes. Many patterns and colors are used, but the traditional and most typical is that of the octagonal elephant's foot (Bukhara) print, often with a red background. The weavers also produce other trappings of the nomadic lifestyle, including tent bags and ceremonial pieces.
