Warm colors and classic motifs

Afghan and Pakistani rugs are characterized by earthy tones such as deep red, brown, golden ochre and dark blue, combined with distinctive geometric patterns. Afghan rugs are dominated by the elephant foot-like Göl pattern and repeated octagons. Pakistani carpets, especially those in the Mori and Bokhara styles, are characterized by denser repetitions of smaller geometric shapes.

Place a large round or rectangular rug under the bed, with part of it sticking out at the sides, or place runners at the sides of the bed.
