3'4x4'8 ft Vintage Afghan Pile Rug | Handknotted Tribal Grid Star Medallion | Deep Navy & Multicolor Wool | Accent Rug Entryway Bedside

About this rug

A bold and visually electrifying vintage Afghan pile rug laid out in a striking grid composition on a deep midnight navy ground — eight large four-pointed star and arrow medallions arranged in four rows of two, alternating between vivid crimson red and warm tobacco brown, each one radiating outward with bold sweeping arms from a small square center on the open navy field.
The medallions are graphic and powerful — their thick, broad arrow arms fanning outward in four directions with a confident, almost heraldic presence. The alternating red and brown color arrangement gives the grid a beautiful checkerboard rhythm, and the navy ground between the medallions is subdivided into a fine square lattice framework in warm brown, each cell containing a small multicolor star motif in red, green, teal, ivory, and gold — filling every inch of the field with detail and colour without ever competing with the dominant medallion forms.
The border is one of the most distinctive features of this piece — wide diagonal stripe bands of bold multicolor in red, green, teal, gold, blue, and ivory run along both long side edges, adding a joyful and unconventional graphic energy. The top and bottom end borders carry a wide ivory band with large repeating cross and plus motifs in red, green, teal, navy, and black — clean, bold, and graphic. Natural ivory fringe at both short ends.
Hand-knotted with a medium wool pile — warm, dense, and durable underfoot. At 3'4 x 4'8 ft it works beautifully as an accent rug, entryway piece, wall hanging, or bedside rug.
