Afghan rugs have traditionally been made in the northern and western areas of Afghanistan, mainly by Afghan Turkomans and Uzbeks. Using rug designs sometimes thousands of years old, and often correlating with Baluchi , Pakistani, and nomadic tribal weaving, various vegetable and other natural dyes are used to produce the rich colors and many patterns, but the traditional and most typical is that of the Bokhara print, often with a red background. The weavers also produce other trappings of the nomadic lifestyle, including tent bags and ceremonial pieces.
