This striking Hamadan rug displays a classic geometric medallion against a rich red field, with intricate border work framing the central design. The traditional motifs are rendered in deep navy, ivory, and gold accents that create striking contrast against the crimson background. The geometric patterns flow with mathematical precision, creating a sense of order and timeless appeal that draws the eye inward to the detailed centerpiece.

Woven by skilled artisans in Afghanistan using traditional hand-knotting techniques, this piece represents generations of rug-making expertise passed down through family workshops. The foundation combines sturdy cotton warps with quality wool pile, ensuring both structural integrity and lasting beauty. Afghan weavers are renowned for their precise knot work and use of natural dyes that develop rich patina over time, making each piece a genuine investment in authentic craftsmanship.

At nearly 5 by 8 feet, this rug works beautifully in medium-sized living rooms, dining areas, or master bedrooms where it can anchor furniture groupings without overwhelming the space. The traditional styling complements both classic and contemporary interiors, while the generous proportions suit 5 x 8 rugs that need substantial coverage. Like all authentic oriental rugs, this piece brings cultural heritage and artistic tradition into modern homes. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
