This handcrafted prayer rug displays the classic mihrab design with a rich burgundy field framed by an intricate ivory border. The prayer arch features geometric motifs in deep blues and golds, while delicate floral elements dance along the border in traditional patterns. The color palette creates a reverent atmosphere with its warm earth tones and jewel-like accents that catch light beautifully.

Woven by skilled Afghan artisans using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this rug is crafted from 100% wool sourced from highland sheep. The dense hand-knotted construction ensures exceptional durability, while the natural lanolin in the Ghazni wool provides inherent stain resistance. Each knot is tied individually, creating the fine detail work visible in the mihrab's geometric borders and corner medallions.

At 2' 9" x 4' 9", this rug works beautifully as a dedicated prayer space or as an accent piece beside a bed or in a study. The compact size suits apartments, prayer rooms, or any space where you want to add authentic Afghan craftsmanship. This piece complements both traditional and contemporary interiors, fitting naturally into collections of oriental rugs or standing alone in 3 x 5 spaces.
