Shekari 9.6 x 8.2 Wool Rug – Black Tree of Life with Vibrant Birds

Origin

Produced by handweavers in Northern Afghanistan, Shekari artisans recreate the Tree of Life tradition by turning it into an impressive dream on a midnight-black ground. Its complex design, with centuries of Persian design tradition, recent authenticity, and sophistication, makes it a one-of-a-kind statement piece.

Materials

The rich palette of the rug is generated by botanical dyes such as indigo, madder root, walnut husk, and pomegranate rind using 100% hand-spun Ghazni wool. The colors made using these natural pigments are long-lasting and fade-resistant. The softness, durability of the dense hand knot pile, a nd also chemical and chemistry-free substitutes, and respect for the heritage and the environment have a rich record.

Design

The black background is a nocturnal sky on which the magnificent “Tree of Life” has blossomed with branches full of crimson, turquoise, saffron, and ivory flowers. The peacocks, cranes, and deer are a part of the moving action that finds itself amid the foliage, marked against the dark field, in this light, color, and fine ornamentation of storytelling.

Craftsmanship

The knot density is fine and all detailing is accurate as all the leaves, birds, and branches are realized. Fringes are well finished, and hand-bound edges would make them last longer and stay beautiful. The artistry of this rug qualifies it to fit not only in a plush living room but also could be used as a textured centerpiece in a show.

Heritage

The tree of life is a sign of richness, new life, and interconnectedness of all living things. In this Shekari version, peacocks represent elegance, cranes represent long life, and deer represent gentleness. This is not just a piece of decor; it is a piece of art that is woven within this carpet, which brings centuries of meaning and art into the contemporary house.

A midnight garden where nature’s story unfolds in Shekari perfection.
