This 5x6 Mishwani rug features nested diamonds formed by diagonal bands of repeating hooked motifs. Rich red and dark navy give the design depth, while ochre and tan outlines draw the eye toward the small central diamond. Muted blue details soften the warm palette. A broad border of diagonal stripes echoes the field, framed by narrow stepped geometric bands. Raised wool motifs against a flatter woven ground add distinctive texture, making this piece a striking focal point for a living room, bedroom, or study.

About Mishwani Rugs
Mishwani rugs are traditional Afghan wool rugs known for combining a flatwoven kilim base with raised hand-knotted pile, creating a distinctive textured finish. Rich colours, repeating diamonds, and geometric tribal motifs bring warmth and character to your home, while their handmade construction gives each piece individual charm. These versatile rugs add texture and visual interest to living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways.
- Vacuum regularly on a low or no-beater-bar setting, taking care around the fringe.
- Rotate the rug every 6-12 months for even wear.
- Blot spills immediately with a clean, dry cloth rather than rubbing.
- Keep out of prolonged direct sunlight to help preserve color.
- We recommend a rug pad underneath to prevent slipping and extend the rug's life.
- For deeper cleaning, use a wool-safe professional rug cleaner every 1-2 years.
