Afshar Rug, Persia, Late 19th Century
This Afshar rug is distinguished by its iconic three-diamond medallion design, a hallmark of Persian tribal weaving. The background is richly decorated with geometric elements and stylized motifs, including zoomorphic figures and the tree of life, symbolizing fertility and protection. The border, consisting of multiple bands, features an alternating pattern of hooked motifs and floral details. The intense color palette, dominated by deep red and black, highlights the strong contrast between the field and the decorations.
