New Hand-Knotted Afghan War Rug – AK-47 & Military Motif Design 62cm by 79cm

Description

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 example features a large central AK-47 surrounded by military imagery including helicopters, aircraft, armored vehicles, pistols, grenades, ammunition, and stylized stars. Woven on a neutral ivory field with bold blue, pink, and brown accents, it is a striking example of Afghanistan's modern weaving tradition.

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