This maroon Afghan kilim displays the bold geometric patterns characteristic of tribal weaving traditions. The deep maroon field creates a striking foundation for the intricate tribal motifs that repeat across the length of this impressive runner. The rich color palette speaks to the natural dyes traditionally used in Afghan weaving, creating a warmth that feels both authentic and inviting. The flat-weave construction allows the patterns to appear crisp and well-defined throughout.

Handwoven by skilled Afghan artisans using traditional techniques passed down through generations, this kilim represents the enduring craft of tribal rug making. The wool is locally sourced Ghazni wool, prized for its durability and ability to hold natural dyes beautifully over time. The flat-weave construction makes this piece both practical and long-lasting, suitable for high-traffic areas while maintaining its striking appearance. This traditional weaving method creates a reversible rug that can be flipped to extend its life.

At over fourteen feet in length, this runner works beautifully in long hallways, gallery spaces, or large open-plan areas where its tribal patterns can be fully appreciated. The narrow width makes it ideal for connecting spaces while the kilim construction suits both traditional and contemporary interiors. This substantial large rug anchors furniture groupings effectively in spacious rooms. Sourced directly by ALRUG from Afghan weavers since 2002, free worldwide shipping.
