This striking handmade prayer rug features a classic mihrab (arched niche) layout with a warm camel field framed by deep red, charcoal, and ivory accents. The stepped arch, small “garden panel” blocks, and bold geometric borders give it that unmistakable village-loom character—graphic, balanced, and full of tradition.
Woven in wool with a compact pile, it has the slightly irregular, human touch you only get from true hand-knotting. The palette reads beautifully in real spaces—perfect for layering, a small statement by the bed, or a strong entryway piece that instantly adds heritage and warmth.

Care Instructions
Vacuum gently (no beater bar). Rotate occasionally for even wear. Spot clean with cold water and a wool-safe soap; blot, don’t scrub. Avoid prolonged direct sunlight to protect the reds. For deep cleaning, use a professional rug cleaner experienced with handmade wool rugs.
This is a perfect small collectible-style piece—easy to ship, easy to style, and rich in cultural design language. If you want a compact rug with bold presence and authentic hand-made soul, this one delivers.
