Description | Afshar rugs are hand-knotted by the Afshar people, a semi-nomadic Turkic tribe living in and around Persian Azerbaijan. Having migrated from Central Asia during the Safavid period, the Afshar were influenced by various village and nomadic weaving traditions. This cultural fusion gives their rugs a distinctive character, often marked by rustic blue and terracotta tones, stylized geometric floral motifs, and traces of Caucasian design influence. This authentic piece is a beautiful representation of their unique artistic heritage. |
