Afshar rugs are woven by the Afshar nomadic and village tribes of Kerman province in southern Persia, historically recognised for their geometric precision, rich indigo blue and madder red grounds, and distinct tribal motifs.

Authentic pieces feature handspun wool pile knotted onto a wool or cotton foundation, dyed using natural organic materials such as madder root, indigo, and walnut husks.

Authenticity is assessed through the irregular variations in natural dyes, handspun wool texture with natural lanolin retention, asymmetric knotting structures, and organic minor irregularities inherent to tribal handweaving.

These textiles provide grounding texture and rich colour to interiors, working effectively as focal points on hardwood flooring in living spaces, studies, or bedrooms to layer historical depth into modern schemes.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without rotating brush heads, professional hand washing when necessary, keeping out of direct sunlight to prevent dye fading, and using a breathable underlay.
