 | Life Sized Bombs Unexploded Ordnance Rugs. UXO Rug This rug, and the group of which it is a part, are all exceptionally well made from the best quality materials. The designs are well organized with a strong composition and design. Borders are beautiful, particularly the corner motifs. The first Unexploded Ordnance war rugs seen by warrug.com came via Pakistan about twenty years ago. Here are two examples: Rug #2024 UXO Warning Rug, and Rug #451 Do Not Touch War Rug. Sentiment and layout though is where the similarities stop, for whereas the rugs above are "Baluchi" style and likely woven around Herat in Western Afghanistan, the new rugs are "Peshawar" or "Chobi" style and were likely woven in Northeastern Afghanistan by Turkmen weavers. The new UXO rugs came in two sizes (5x8 feet or 1.5M x 2.5M and 6'6"x12'6" or 2x4M) A note about photography. The rug is square but the step ladder was not tall enough to get a square shot of the whole rug, so please excuse the perspective in the full rug photos. | ID: 1804 $6750 78 x 148 inches 198 x 376 cm |
 | Large Size, Unexploded Ordnance Afghan War Rug This rug, and the group of which it is a part, are all exceptionally well made from the best quality materials. The designs are well organized with a strong composition and design. Borders are beautiful, particularly the corner motifs. This new group of unexploded ordnance rugs are uncommonly beautiful. The design is strong and related, apparently, to these rugs from the Omar Mine Museum: #2024 Unexploded Ordnance Warning Rug, and this absolute gem, #451 Do Not Touch War Rug The subject matter and layout, though, is where the similarities end, for rugs #451 and #2024 are classic "Baluchi" rugs most likely woven around Herat in Western Afghanistan, whereas the new group of rugs are woven in the "Chobi" or "Vegetal Dye Peshawar" style with Turkmen borders. We contacted OMAR about their rugs, but they were not forthcoming, and the new rugs bear no OMAR emblem like the earlier rugs. A note about the photography: the step ladder was not tall enough to get a square shot of the whole big rugs. The rugs are square although the photos are not. | ID: 1805 $7500 77 x 136 inches 196 x 345 cm |
