Afghan War Rug – Hand-Knotted Wool (New) - 64cm by 86cm

A contemporary Afghan war rug, hand-knotted in Afghanistan using traditional weaving techniques. War rugs emerged during the late 20th century as local weavers began incorporating the realities of conflict into centuries-old carpet designs, creating a unique form of historical folk art.

This striking example features military imagery including a helicopter, rifle, rocket launcher, and poppy flowers—symbols that reflect Afghanistan's complex modern history. Woven in rich reds and blues, it blends traditional craftsmanship with contemporary storytelling.

A unique piece for collectors of textiles, military history, or modern folk art.
