Tribes of Uzbek origin have settled in northern Afghanistan since ancient times. This large kilim is made up of large motifs in the form of serrated diamonds, and a border of hooks (half swastikas, a cosmic sign that symbolizes perpetual movement), framed by an outer border. The range of colors is spectacular, and to be noted the sky blue, achieved with a natural indigo dye.
