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 rich brown field. The warm earth tones echo the Afghan landscape while highlighting the detailed military motifs and traditional craftsmanship that define these unique textiles.
A unique piece for collectors of textiles, military history, or modern folk art.
