Vintage Afghan War Rug

No. 31785
Afghanistan, Late 20th Century
3 ft. 9 in. x 6 ft. 3 in.
(1.13 x 1.89 m)

A wool pile of asymmetric knots on a wool foundation. The navy field shows stylized tanks, bombs, samovars and tables, with a supporting scatter of rosettes and lazy S’s. Navy border of helicopters and tanks. A true memento of a misguided Soviet operation and the valor of the mujahedeen.
