Khurjin Handmade Rug 3X5 FT

Description:

Woven by skilled artisans using time-honoured tribal techniques, this authentic Afghan Khurjin rug is a masterpiece of geometric storytelling. Inspired by the traditional saddlebag (khurjin) panel layout, the design features bold horizontal bands alternating between richly patterned registers and open striped fields — a hallmark of nomadic Central Asian weaving.

Design Highlights:

• Multi-band layout with repeating diamond lattice, hooked medallions, and stylised floral motifs
• Rich jewel-toned palette: deep crimson, earthy brown, sage green, ivory, and slate blue
• Contrasting stripe registers in muted tones create visual rhythm and depth
• Colourful hand-knotted kilim fringe at both ends — a signature tribal finishing detail
