This handcrafted prayer rug displays the sacred mihrab arch in deep burgundy against a rich cream field, framed by geometric borders in navy and gold. Traditional boteh motifs and stylized florals fill the prayer niche, creating a design that has guided worshippers for generations. The palette combines warm earth tones with jewel accents, giving this piece both spiritual gravitas and visual warmth.

Woven by skilled artisans in Afghanistan using time-honored techniques passed down through families, this rug is crafted entirely from premium wool with a tight 50-60 knots per square inch construction. Afghan weavers are renowned for their prayer rug expertise, often using naturally dyed Ghazni wool that develops character and depth over decades. The dense knotting ensures durability while maintaining the fine detail work essential to traditional Islamic geometric patterns.

At nearly three by four feet, this prayer rug suits personal meditation spaces, bedside areas, or small entryways in traditional and contemporary homes alike. The compact size makes it ideal for apartments or as an accent piece in larger rooms. This piece joins our carefully curated Afghan rugs collection alongside other 3 x 5 selections.
