This traditional prayer rug showcases the timeless geometric artistry of Afghan weaving, with intricate patterns arranged in a classic mihrab layout. The field displays a harmonious blend of warm earth tones and jewel accents that create visual depth across the compact surface. Bold angular motifs frame the central prayer niche, while detailed borders provide elegant containment to the overall composition. The rich color palette combines deep reds, navy blues, and golden highlights that work together to create an authentic ceremonial atmosphere.

Handcrafted by skilled Afghan weavers using traditional knotting techniques passed down through generations, this prayer rug represents centuries of cultural heritage. The dense wool construction utilizes high-quality Ghazni wool known for its durability and natural luster, while the hand-knotted foundation ensures lasting structural integrity. Natural dyes contribute to the rug's authentic character and help the colors develop a beautiful patina over time.

At 2' 6" x 4' 2", this prayer rug works beautifully in personal meditation spaces, as a decorative wall hanging, or as an accent piece in smaller rooms. The compact proportions make it ideal for apartments, studies, or bedrooms where you want to introduce the sophisticated patterns found in oriental rugs without overwhelming the space. This size fits perfectly within the popular 3 x 5 category for versatile home placement. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
