3'2x5 ft Vintage Afghan Pile Rug | Handknotted Tribal Diamond Chain Medallion | Warm Tobacco Brown & Multicolor Wool | Accent Rug Entryway

About this rug

A richly warm and boldly coloured vintage Afghan pile rug that is a close companion in spirit to the previous piece but with its own distinct character and personality. The deep tobacco brown field carries a vertical chain of large hexagonal diamond medallions running continuously from top to bottom, each one outlined in ivory and filled with fine geometric cross and arrow detail in forest green, teal, and dark brown — the central green teal connecting spine running through all the medallions like a living thread, giving the composition a strong, unified vertical energy.
Flanking the central chain on both sides are large bold tribal motifs in vivid crimson red — wide stepped arrow and hook forms that radiate outward from the medallion column into the warm brown field, creating a striking contrast of warm earth tones and vivid colour. Small cross and star fills in ivory and red scatter between the forms, maintaining density across the whole field. The overall palette is warm, jewel-toned, and deeply tribal — tobacco brown, crimson red, forest green, ivory, and teal working together in a composition of genuine richness.
The border is bold and multicolored — a wide crimson red outer frame carries a continuous bold stepped arrow motif in dark navy and black along all four sides, while a narrow inner top and bottom stripe carries a row of bold geometric motifs in teal, cobalt blue, yellow, green, and purple — unusually vivid and decorative. Natural camel fringe at both short ends.
Hand-knotted with a medium wool pile — warm and durable underfoot. At 3'2 x 5 ft it is a perfect accent rug for a bedroom, entryway, or layering piece.
