This Mashwani runner showcases the bold geometric traditions of Afghan tribal weaving with its rich red field anchored by striking diamond motifs and angular borders. The deep crimson foundation creates a warm, commanding presence while intricate geometric patterns flow rhythmically along its length. Traditional stepped medallions and serrated edges give this piece an authentic tribal character that speaks to centuries of nomadic artistry. The saturated red palette brings both energy and sophistication to any corridor or entryway.

Handcrafted by skilled Afghan weavers using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this runner represents the finest traditions of Mashwani tribal weaving. The dense hand-knotted construction uses premium Ghazni wool known for its durability and natural luster. Each knot is tied individually, creating a substantial foundation that will withstand decades of foot traffic while maintaining its vibrant appearance. Natural dyes derived from regional plants and minerals ensure the colors will age gracefully rather than fade.

At 2 feet wide and over 8 feet long, this runner works beautifully in hallways, galley kitchens, or as a defining element between larger furniture pieces. The compact width suits narrow spaces while the generous length creates visual flow in longer corridors. This piece complements both traditional and contemporary interiors, particularly those with warm wood tones or neutral palettes.
