Description
Mamluk carpets have geometric and floral designs with Egyptian and Islamic influences. Mosque ceilings, windows, and mosaic floors mostly inspired the designs. A deep red background is a Mamluk carpet characteristic. In addition, shades of blue, green, beige, gold, and brown were used for the design elements, medallion, and borders. This rug in particular is a Mamluk inspired design made in Afghanistan.
