This Afghan Shikargah rug showcases the traditional hunting scene motif with geometric interpretations of animals and birds across its field. The design features a rich palette mixing deep reds, navy blues, and warm ivory tones that create an engaging visual narrative. The geometric patterns flow naturally across the surface, with stylized figures and botanical elements that tell the ancient stories of the hunt.

Woven by skilled Afghan artisans using time-honored techniques, this rug combines high-quality Ghazni wool pile with a sturdy cotton foundation. The 80-90 knots per square inch density ensures both durability and fine detail reproduction, while the natural wool fibers provide the lustrous finish characteristic of authentic Afghan weaving. The Wool on Cotton construction offers excellent longevity and maintains the rug's structural integrity over decades of use.

At 3' 3" x 4' 10", this piece works beautifully in entryways, beside beds, or as an accent in reading corners and study areas. The compact size makes it ideal for layering in contemporary settings or anchoring small furniture groupings in traditional decor schemes.
