This Afghan prayer rug displays a classic mihrab design with a deep black field that frames the central prayer niche beautifully. The traditional geometric motifs are woven in warm earth tones that create subtle contrast against the dominant black background. The precise knotting reveals intricate border patterns that frame the prayer space with traditional Islamic artistry. The overall effect is both reverent and visually striking, with each detail carefully preserved through generations of weaving knowledge.

Crafted by skilled Afghan weavers using time-honored techniques passed down through families, this prayer carpet showcases the superior quality of Ghazni wool known for its durability and natural luster. The hand-knotted construction ensures each knot is individually tied, creating a dense weave that will maintain its beauty for decades. Natural dyes give the colors their authentic depth and richness, while the traditional materials connect this piece to centuries of Islamic carpet weaving tradition.
