This traditional prayer rug showcases the distinctive geometric mihrab design that defines Islamic prayer carpets. The field features an intricate archway pattern rendered in a lively mix of warm reds, deep blues, and ivory accents. Small repeating motifs fill the borders and field, creating visual depth while maintaining the meditative quality essential to prayer rugs. The color palette strikes a beautiful balance between vibrant expression and contemplative restraint.

Handcrafted by skilled Afghan weavers using time-honored techniques passed down through generations, this piece represents authentic Central Asian rug making at its finest. The foundation and pile are constructed entirely from durable wool, with the distinctive Ghazni wool providing exceptional resilience and natural luster. Each knot was tied by hand, ensuring the structural integrity and artistic precision that machine production cannot replicate.

At 2' 8" x 4' 4", this prayer rug works beautifully in personal meditation spaces, bedroom corners, or as an accent piece in hallways and entryways. The compact size makes it ideal for apartments and smaller rooms while the traditional design complements both contemporary and classic interiors. This piece joins our curated collection of oriental rugs alongside other authentic 3 x 5 sized carpets. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
