The wool yarn is handspun and dyed with mixtures of natural vegetable dyes. The wool is knotted onto a cotton foundation. The aesthetics of Afghan Sultani rugs derive from classic Persian carpet designs, of floral patterns and formats, that originate from the height of artistic flourishing of the applied arts (particularly in carpet design) from the reign of Shah Abbas (1588 - 1629) of the Persian Safavid dynasty. Floral elements are paramount in these Afghan pieces, but, as seen in this rug, this piece has timeless floral design combined with a contemporary feel; with the use of eye-catching colours. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat are the Typical Motifs that are Recognisable in this Rug?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe field is filled with a traditional format of interconnecting rosettes, flowerheads as well as a charming single distinctive pomegranate motif opposite a prominant palmette.
