Description from the seller

Fascinating Afghan rug of Ghazni quality, handmade in the 1980s and featuring a refined interpretation of traditional Caucasian designs from the Kuba (Quba) region, in present-day Azerbaijan.

The rug has a rich black central field, embellished with a succession of geometrically stylized floral motifs arranged in a regular, harmonious composition.

The color palette is particularly striking: coral red, powder blue, ivory, and ochre yellow stand out vividly against the dark background, creating a decorative ensemble with considerable visual impact.

A wide coral-red border, enriched with small geometric elements and ornamental motifs, frames the central field. Completing the composition, a second ochre-yellow border features a distinctive succession of multicolored stars.

Textile tradition

This rug represents an intriguing meeting of Afghan craftsmanship and Caucasian decorative heritage.

Kuba designs, celebrated for their precise geometry and the originality of their stylized floral compositions, are reinterpreted here through the artisanal sensibility of Afghan weavers.

Made in the 1980s with a wool pile and cotton foundation, the rug retains the charm of handmade pieces from the second half of the 20th century.

Decorative appeal

Thanks to its distinctive balance of vivid colors and geometric motifs, this vintage rug fits perfectly into both classic settings and contemporary spaces.

Particularly well suited to modern living rooms, eclectic interiors, or minimalist spaces, where it can become a striking decorative feature with a strong personality.

A rug that brings together Eastern tradition, Caucasian influences, and a surprising aesthetic modernity.

Dimensions: 202 × 152 cm.
