About the Item

This Early 20th century Persian Afshar sampler rug, measuring 2' 1" x 2' 3", is a captivating example of the artistry and creativity found in tribal weaving traditions. Afshar rugs are known for their vibrant color palettes, bold geometry, and expressive floral motifs, and this piece embodies those qualities with remarkable charm. The field features a striking ivory-ground stepped medallion with stylized geometric detailing, set against a rich red and midnight blue backdrop. Surrounding the medallion are scattered floral blossoms, angular leaves, and abstract botanical devices, showcasing the weaver’s inventive hand. Each motif contributes to a dynamic sense of movement while maintaining balance within the design. The main border frames the composition with serrated motifs and small rosettes, executed in alternating tones of ivory, rust, and blue, lending a strong sense of rhythm. Small yet commanding, this Afshar rug captures the nomadic spirit, combining tribal boldness with decorative refinement.
