3'5 x 4'11 Hand-Knotted Afghan Kazak Accent Rug

Item Details

This contemporary Afghan Kazak rug is a fine example of the modern revival of traditional 19th-century Caucasian weaving. Hand-knotted by Afghan artisans using 100% hand-spun Ghazni wool, the rug features a vibrant yet sophisticated palette dominated by a sage green field. The central composition consists of three large geometric medallions flanked by smaller tribal motifs, including stars and latch-hooks. The design is framed by a complex triple-border system featuring repeating rosettes and geometric guards in shades of navy, terracotta, and cream. A hallmark of this piece is the intentional abrash—subtle horizontal color variations created by natural vegetable dyes—which provides a sense of depth and an ‘antique’ aesthetic. Tightly knotted and finished with a low-to-medium pile, this durable accent rug seamlessly blends historic tribal symbolism with a color palette suited for modern transitional interiors.
