5'10x8'7 ft Vintage Afghan Bashir Hand Knotted Wool Rug Deep Red Ivory Turkmen Gul Medallion Tribal Rug Living Room Bedroom

About this rug

This magnificent vintage Afghan Kunduz Bashir rug is a stunning example of classic Turkmen gul medallion weaving, hand-knotted by skilled artisans using 100% natural wool. Measuring 5'10x8'7 ft, this large area rug features a rich deep red and burgundy field filled with three columns of repeating ivory Turkmen gul medallions — one of the most iconic and prized designs in Afghan tribal rug tradition.
Each gul medallion is rendered in warm ivory and cream with intricate dark navy interior geometric detailing, creating a beautiful contrast against the deep red field. Small coral pink star accents are scattered between the guls, adding subtle warmth and liveliness to the composition. The wide ivory border is decorated with a bold geometric zigzag and stepped pattern on the sides, while the top and bottom borders carry an elegant repeating floral and arabesque vine scroll design in dark navy and ivory tones.
The natural vintage aging of this rug has deepened and enriched the red tones beautifully, giving it a warm antique quality that makes it a truly exceptional statement piece for any interior.
