Antique Afshar Small Scatter Size Wool Blue Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exquisite example of tribal weaving originates from the Afshar nomadic groups of Persia. Its compact dimensions classify it as a small scatter size, making it ideal for transitional spaces or as a striking accent piece in a curated interior. The palette is grounded in a saturated, almost midnight indigo field, characteristic of the finest natural dyes used during this period. The skillful deployment of a deep blue color rugs provides a dramatic contrast to the warm terracotta, rust, and saffron hues that define the repeating motifs. The primary design features a dense, repeating shield or cartouche motif, rendered in a striking geometric style.
