Suzzani Handmade Rug 5x8 FT

This exquisite Handmade Suzzani Rug is a fine example of Afghan craftsmanship, featuring a timeless tribal pattern inspired by traditional Khurjin (saddlebag) designs. Each piece is meticulously handwoven by skilled Afghan artisans using age-old weaving techniques passed down through generations.

Design & Color Palette: The rug showcases a rich navy blue base adorned with repeating teardrop-shaped medallions arranged in a symmetrical grid pattern. The medallions alternate between burgundy/wine red and grey/taupe backgrounds, each outlined with cream/ivory and orange/coral borders. Inside each medallion is a stylized floral motif in cream/ivory with navy blue details. The field is scattered with small burgundy/red floral sprigs and cream flowers creating a delicate background pattern. The border features a navy blue band with cream/ivory vine patterns and burgundy/red floral accents, creating a sophisticated and traditional aesthetic that reflects Afghan cultural heritage.
