1' 8" x 1' 8" Afghan Oriental Rug

Sale Price Only $20

1 foot 8 inch by 1 foot 8 inch Afghan Oriental Rug

This is a great little rug. This is ideal for use as a small rug, a door mat, a seat cushion, etc... I realize that eBay is sometime seen as a dumping ground for dead inventory or flawed rugs. My policy is to pick first quality attractive rugs. I also personally examine each rugs front and back for flaws. This rug has no color run, no holes or tears and no problems that I can find.

A note about the construction:

Afghan Kazak Construction The Afghan Rugs use a asymmetrical knot on a depressed foundation. Not to say the foundation is sad :-) A depressed means one weft is slightly straighter than the other which makes one node of the knot lower than the other. Please note in the picture above how every other node is lower. If this same rug had symmetrical knots then it would be called a Hazara which is woven by Hazara weavers.

This rug is from Herat Orientals of Alexandria Virginia. Zia Hassanzadeh the owner and I are old friends and we have done business for years. Zia has given me Carte Blanche to select the rugs I like from his inventory and Herat Orientals will handle the sale and ship them.

This is an ideal opportunity for you since this way you can find first quality rugs from the inventory of one of the major importers to the US market. Herat also carries a large inventory of large and antique carpets and rugs.

Best wishes,
