This authentic vintage Afghan Ersari room-size rug features a classic allover geometric composition woven in a highly sought-after camel hair palette. Handwoven in the mid-20th century, the field is organized with repeating octagonal medallions known as Gul (flower motifs), rendered in deep navy and midnight blue against a warm camel hair ground.
What sets this piece apart is the exceptional quality of the wool—naturally lustrous and finely spun—creating a subtle shimmer under changing light and a remarkably soft, almost silk-like hand. This refined texture enhances the depth of the design while preserving the strength and durability for which Ersari weavings are known.
Timeless, versatile, and grounded in tradition, this rug’s balanced geometry and sophisticated neutral palette make it an ideal foundation for living rooms, dining spaces, bedrooms, or layered interiors.
