Shekari 11.9 x 8.8 Wool Rug – Verdant Tree of Life with Majestic Birds

Origin

It is handwoven by the master weavers of Northern Afghanistan, and derives influence through a Persian “Tree of Life” tradition that has become iconic. Being the embodiment of life, balance, and unity, its aesthetics is the reflection of centuries of cultural associations. The individual branches, avians, and flowers are all carefully made, a combination of ancient and modern techniques, in order to create a masterpiece of a collectible.

Materials

Hand-spun in Ghazni wool, this fine and yet strong to the touch is accented by rich botanical dyes using walnut husk, madder root, and pomegranate rind. The rug is naturally fade-resistant, environmentally friendly, and biodegradable, and retains its vibrant color gracefully over time, which guarantees not only an environmentally sound practice but also its timeless beauty into the future.

Design

A rich-green forest floor provides a backdrop to an elaborate Tree of Life image, representing a proliferation of peacocks, cranes, pheasants, as well as doves. Crimson, saffron, ivory, and sky blue blossom brightens the picture, and a balanced composition with fine detailing makes the possibility of exploring them without ending, turning your floor into a living art piece.

Craftsmanship

This quality hand-knotted carpet has very high to enable detailed work, hand-bound edges, and finely trimmed fringes. The restraint with which it combines complex designs and open areas indicates the work of a skilled designer, making it just as compelling as a statement floor piece as it is as a wall-hung textile artwork to discerning collectors.

Heritage

The “Tree of Life”, in Persian and Central Asian tradition, signifies wealth and natural beauty and harmony of being. Every bird and blossom has a symbolically significant story to tell behind it-the peacock with all its glory, the crane that lives long- so this Shekari carpet is quite more than a beautiful piece of furniture, but rather a woven legend of ancient cultural tradition.

A lush forest of life, handwoven into Shekari perfection.
