This unique vintage Afghan tribal hallway rug is a lively celebration of colour, symbolism, and nomadic tradition. Handwoven with wool, the design features an eye-catching field of octagonal “gul” medallions each distinct in pattern and colour neatly arranged in vertical rows across a deep indigo-blue ground. The medallions are rendered in a kaleidoscope of hues, including terracotta, saffron, emerald, blush, navy, and ivory, giving the rug a dynamic mosaic-like appearance.
Framed by a narrow border of geometric tribal motifs in red, ivory, and navy, the composition balances rhythm with individuality, each gul a small story of tribal identity and heritage. The rich contrast between the bold navy background and vibrant motifs enhances the visual depth and energy of the piece.
Perfect for adding warmth, texture, and cultural flair to hallways or transitional spaces, this Afghan rug embodies the spirit of traditional craftsmanship with a playful modern twist.
Authentic vintage and antique Afghan rugs are hand-knotted with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and unique.
