Description

A richly coloured antique Antique Afshar rug woven in the south-west of Persia with the islamic date 1322 which translates to 1905. Varying dyes of green, reds, pinks and deep blue to almost black dyes.  In great condition with a soft wool pile and even the colourful Kilim end showing at the top.  These often get lost over time, so a lovely part of a rug to be still intact.

Afshars are a tribal group which originally came from Azerbijan, between the Tigris and Euphrates, but after a dispute in the late 16th century with the Turkish sultan they left their homeland for their location during the late 19th century in the south of Persia.
