About the Item

This Mid-20th century Persian Afshar rug, measuring 1' 8" x 2' 6", is a fine example of the inventive artistry of tribal weavers from southern Persia. Woven on a compact scale, the rug distills the essence of Afshar design into a portable format that would have likely served a functional and decorative purpose within nomadic or village life. The field is distinguished by a sparse arrangement of stylized boteh motifs, executed in deep brown and framed against a soft, sandy-beige ground. These boteh forms, often interpreted as seeds or flames, symbolize fertility, growth, and continuity, recurring themes in Persian weaving traditions. Surrounding the field, a narrow geometric border features interlocking diamonds and linear accents, lending structure and balance to the composition. The restrained palette, consisting primarily of earthy tones with subtle traces of pale blue, reflects the weavers’ resourceful use of natural dyes, further highlighting the rug’s authentic tribal character.
