2'1 x 8'6 Handmade Afghan Mashwani Carpet Runner

Item Details

This authentic Afghan Mashwani runner is a masterwork of tribal weaving from Western Afghanistan. Utilizing a sophisticated mixed-media technique, the rug features five prominent diamond-shaped medallions hand-knotted in a soft wool pile, set against a resilient flat-weave kilim foundation. The color palette is dominated by a rich, saturated madder red, complemented by traditional geometric tribal motifs in navy blue and cream. Known for their durability and ‘soft-to-touch’ wool, Mashwani textiles are highly prized for their intricate detail and the physical depth created by the varying weave heights. This long-format runner is finished with traditional patterned flat-weave headers and a natural wool fringe.
