This striking Mamluk rug displays a bold geometric pattern across a rich red field, anchored by a central medallion that draws the eye inward. The traditional star-and-polygon motifs repeat in harmonious symmetry, while cream and navy accents provide crisp contrast against the dominant crimson backdrop. The overall effect creates a sense of grandeur befitting this substantial piece, with each geometric element contributing to an intricate yet balanced composition.

Handcrafted in Afghanistan using time-honored techniques passed down through generations of skilled artisans, this rug represents centuries of weaving tradition. The cotton foundation provides exceptional durability for high-traffic areas, while the dense hand-knotting ensures longevity that will serve your family for decades. Afghan weavers are renowned for their precision in executing complex geometric patterns, and this piece showcases their mastery of the demanding Mamluk design vocabulary.

At nearly 12 by 17 feet, this oversized rug works beautifully in spacious living rooms, formal dining areas, or grand entryways where it can command attention without overwhelming the space. The generous proportions accommodate large seating arrangements while maintaining visual breathing room. This size works particularly well with Mamluk rugs and other pieces in our 12 x 15 collection.
