About the Item
This early 20th-century Afghani Ersari rug is a striking example of tribal craftsmanship, featuring an all-over pattern of octagonal medallions, each filled with stylized floral motifs. Woven in rich shades of crimson and indigo, with accents of natural undyed wool, the design feels both rhythmic and organic. The medallions are nestled within a field of abstract floral forms, creating a layered and harmonious composition that rewards close inspection. A simple yet majestic border frames the rug, composed of alternating wide and narrow bands filled with geometric patterns—a testament to the weaver’s eye for proportion and detail. The use of natural dyes lends warmth and depth to the palette, while the wool’s soft luster enhances its tactile appeal. Rooted in the weaving traditions of the Ersari people of northern Afghanistan, this rug is both utilitarian and deeply artistic—a beautiful expression of cultural identity through pattern, color, and hand-woven skill.
