Description from the seller
Vintage Ersari rug, 190 x 125 cm, hand-knotted, clean
This vintage Ersari rug stands out clearly from the mass-produced Afghan rugs of the 1980s thanks to its exceptionally soft wool and truly vivid, eye-catching colors. It is striking for its beautiful side borders, typical of this weaving tradition and featuring multiple wrapping, as well as its refined end finishes. The quality of the wool, sourced from the Afghan mountains—a distinctive feature of Ersari rugs—is excellent, as can be seen in the warp structure and the colors’ luminosity. The rug is in excellent condition: it is very soft, with no stiffness whatsoever, yet sturdy and pleasant to the touch. Durable yet soft: that is the winning formula for a high-quality rug. It has no insect damage and no smell of smoke or pets. The rug is made entirely of wool (100%) and dyed exclusively with vegetable dyes (derived from plants and roots, such as madder for red shades). A clean rug, highly recommended.
