This handcrafted prayer rug displays the traditional mihrab arch design against a rich burgundy field, framed by intricate geometric borders in deep blue and ivory. The sacred niche features delicate floral motifs and geometric patterns that draw the eye upward, while the surrounding borders showcase traditional Islamic calligraphy and vine scrollwork. The warm color palette of burgundy, navy, and cream creates a sense of reverence and tranquility that honors the rug's spiritual purpose.

Woven by skilled artisans in Afghanistan using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this prayer rug is crafted from 100% wool sourced from the highland regions. Afghan weavers are renowned for their mastery of religious textiles, using natural dyes and hand-knotting methods that ensure both durability and spiritual authenticity. The dense knotting and quality Ghazni wool construction mean this piece will maintain its beauty and significance for decades of daily use.

At 3' 1" x 4' 5", this prayer rug fits comfortably in bedrooms, studies, or dedicated prayer spaces without overwhelming smaller rooms. The compact size makes it ideal for personal worship while the traditional design complements both Middle Eastern and contemporary interiors.
