{"product_id":"navy-red-afshan-rug-hand-knotted-afghani-sherwan","title":"Navy \u0026 Red Afshan Rug, Hand-Knotted Afghani Sherwan","description":"\u003cp\u003eAn indigo field carries this hand-knotted rug in the Caucasian afshan manner — an all-over \"scattered\" design in which a vertical chain of serrated stepped medallions and eight-pointed stars floats amid a dense, restless scatter of stylised blossoms, serrated leaves, slender tree-and-shrub motifs and a whole menagerie of small birds and four-legged animals. Worked in madder red, ivory, saffron and soft teal against the deep blue ground, the field is filled corner to corner; the abundance is the design.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt is hand-knotted in Afghanistan by master weavers working in the older Caucasian Shirvan tradition, with a fine, even knot count, a low clipped pile and flat-woven kilim ends. The wool is hand-spun and coloured with natural dyes, which give the indigo and madder their depth and the gentle, light-catching variation that machine-made rugs can never reproduce. A broad madder-red border of bold palmettes and rosettes, framed by guard stripes of linked diamonds, draws the whole piece together.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDensely woven and built to last for generations, this is a collector-grade piece — equally at home as the centrepiece of a formal living or dining room or as an heirloom investment. As a hand-made rug, it is genuinely one of a kind.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOrigin: Afghanistan\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTradition: Caucasian Shirvan, afshan all-over design\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eType: Afghani Sherwan, hand-knotted\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaterial: 100% hand-spun wool, natural dyes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePile: Low, hand-clipped, with kilim ends\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSize: 215×291cm (Large)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eColour: Indigo field with madder-red border\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSKU: AFGP-G 313129\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOne-of-a-kind: yes\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"RUGINZA","offers":[{"title":"215×291cm \/ Navy Blue \/ Wool","offer_id":45658396426293,"sku":"AFGP-G 313129","price":1000000.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0713\/6467\/3589\/files\/hf_20260622_053643_77668201-eec9-42b4-b53a-6945be2812fb.png?v=1782119436","url":"https:\/\/ruginza.jp\/products\/navy-red-afshan-rug-hand-knotted-afghani-sherwan","provider":"Ruginza","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
