A rug made entirely of horizontal stripes, running edge to edge with no border: wide bands of orange, teal, navy, gold, olive and rust alternate with narrow bands of small repeating motifs — dots, little squares, zigzags and hooked figures — in magenta, cream, red and blue. A broad band of rust red closes each end, with a short fringe.
Hand-knotted in Afghanistan from hand-spun wool. No two bands are quite alike: the widths change, the colours shift with natural dyes along each stripe, and the small motifs vary from band to band. At 298×424cm this is a large room-size rug for a living room, dining room or open-plan space.
