AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

This handwoven Afghan-Balouch rug is characterized by its strong, traditional color scheme and a very dense, rhythmically built allover pattern. The entire field is filled with regularly recurring, highly stylized floral- or rosette-like motifs, arranged in clear rows, giving the rug a distinctive, lively effect.

Color-wise, red, dark red and black dominate, complemented by small cream and white accents. The motifs stand out clearly from the dark ground structure and create a strong contrast. The broad border echoes the red–black combination and is designed with geometric jagged and angular motifs. Narrow light side borders further provide a clear framing of the field.

Through the combination of vivid colors, dense patterning and a strictly divided border, the rug appears expressive and traditional. With its generous size of 312 × 155 cm, it is excellent for living rooms, dining areas, hallways or as a striking accent in larger rooms.
