#1808, Green Reaper Rug
Date: Received USA November 2020
Size 25 x 41 inches, ( 63 X104 cm), KPSI: 9 h X 9 v, Turkman

Very unusual green rug.

The green wool is a different texture from the red wool in the airplane. Perhaps the goal was a light sky blue.

Date: Between mid 1980's and mid 1990's
Size 47 x 91 inches, ( 118 X230 cm), KPSI: 8 h X 9 v, Zakini

This two ewer war rug is marked with two large tanks in the center and a row of red, brown, and green rifles dividing the two halves of the rug.

The checkered coloration of the ewers is echoed in the design and coloration of the grenades in the smaller intricate border. Detailed drawings of tanks, rifles, and helicopters form the main border on a pale yellow background.

Color runs throughout. Mostly in the corners.

#495, Six Abstract Horseback Riders Afghan War Rgu
Date:
Size 46 x 75 inches, ( 117 X190 cm), KPSI: 9 h X 9 v,

(Also marked with tag 1631) This horseman rug is a great contrast to rug 2017 and shows the evolution of pattern from detailed and realistic to simplified and abstracted. The horses are headless and the figures riding them look more like cricket bats. The other animals are as abstracted, the deer have lizard-like spiked backs and teeth, and the goats and other animals stand alert with their tails stiff.

Excellent new condition. Like the other Red Rugs currently available on WarRug.com these rugs have been in a dealer's warehouse since they were woven in 1990's.
The green and red combination in this rug makes it unique and outstanding. Also the small patterns within the different images tie the whole rug together. Also the small tanks are one of the best images in all red rugs.
