An antique Persian Afshar rug. The Turkic Afshar tribes of SE Persia weave a bewildering variety of designs and structures. One of the most popular geometric patterns is this one: stepped lozenge medallions with stylized palmette centers, here on a well-filled brown ground, with similar side and corner fillers. Figure/ground ambiguity. The main border is a chain of reciprocal ram's horns. A decorative and genuine nomadic rug.
