Story

Pairs of tribal rugs are very few and far between. This is the only Afshar pair I have come across and I love it. What makes them more unique is the fact that they are a mirror pair, meaning when placed alongside each other the pattern is reflected as if by a lake or a mirror πŸͺž

The quality of natural dyes is amazing, especially when you focus on the center and corners. The midnight blue field frames a flowering vase with 𝘎𝘰𝘭 𝘰 π˜‰π˜°π˜­π˜£π˜°π˜­ iconography. A melodious nightingale is perched among colorful flowers of various delightful hues. The attention to detail and skill of execution is impressive, especially when you realize there is no symmetry in the flower bouquet.

To be sold as a pair.

I must say this one of the most enriching carpet purchase experiences I ever had. This was not a mere transaction but more an experience about art and history. Dr Maktabi's experience and knowledge in this space is second to none. Highly recommended! R.A., Doha, Qatar
