New Hand-Knotted Afghan War Rug – Helicopter, Rifle & Poppy Design

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 military helicopter, rifle, rocket launcher, and stylized poppy flowers woven against a light ivory background. The clean, neutral palette gives the traditional war rug imagery a fresh and modern appearance while showcasing the craftsmanship of Afghan weaving.

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