/ / / gorgeous antique Afshar rug with stunning colors. Afshar rugs are highly collectible, and this beauty has a wonderful, lived-in feel that only true antique rugs have. I love thinking about the history of old rugs-where in the world have they been? What homes have they lived in? There is a certain romance and mystery to these hand knotted pieces of art.

/ / / condition: good antique condition. This rug is slightly non-rectangular, as seen in the photos. There are areas of low and zero pile on this rug, and the wrapping in the selvedges is missing in some areas (see photo #8 for reference). This rug has been professionally restored and the headends secured, ensuring many, many more years of life. I highly recommend using rug pad with grip backing to keep your rug in place and to smooth out any wrinkles from shipping-using a rug pad will also prolong the life of your rug. But really- get a rug pad! I have handpicked this rug specifically for its rustic, timeworn appeal. It may have other small imperfections- which is part of the charm of these old textiles. I want you to love your rug! Please look at the photos carefully and ask any and all questions before purchasing, as all sales are final. This rug has been professionally cleaned and is ready for use.

/ / / pile: low (zero in many places)

/ / / weight: medium

/ / / colors: deep midnight, indigo, pale rose, cobalt, copper, wheat, ivory, chocolate. I take all photos in natural, filtered light and only very modestly edit photos. Please be aware that colors may vary slightly depending on the device you are viewing it on.
