Rug & Kilim’s Mashwani Afghan Tribal Rug in Burgundy with Diamond Patterns

Hand knotted in wool, this 7×9 Baluch rug represents a new line of tribal carpets in the Modern Classics Collection by Rug & Kilim. Each piece  represents the work of women weavers in Afghanistan, preserving the rich tradition of their centuries-old craft.

On the Design:

Admirers of the craft may appreciate elements of a Mashwani rug design—a celebrated provenance of traditional Afghan carpets especially known for their tight knotting. Rich burgundy red underscores gray-blue and rust tones in diamond geometric patterns arranged almost like a mosaic. Admirers of the craft will appreciate this particular take on a primitivist weaving style and its unique textural style. This piece is a rich, comfortable nod to a time-honored nomadic tradition and its rustic, old-world charm in kind.
