Vintage Afghan Hand-Embroidered Textile - wall hanging or altar decoration
Vintage Afghan Hand-Embroidered Textile | 1960s–1970s
A beautifully intricate hand-embroidered textile from Afghanistan, rich with story and soul. Each piece is a one-of-a-kind artwork, featuring traditional geometric patterns stitched with remarkable craftsmanship.
Collected by a local antique dealer during the free-spirited hippy era of the 1960s and 70s, these textiles were hand-picked on travels through Afghanistan and brought back to his Portobello Road shop in London. Their vibrant threads and meditative patterns carry the essence of a time when artistry and adventure intertwined.
Perfect as a wall hanging to bring warmth and colour into your space, or as a textile for creative projects. You can choose to have yours framed by a local framer, or keep it unframed to use freely — for altar decoration, spiritual spaces, or as a cherished vintage keepsake.
Each piece is unique, showing the beauty of age, use, and handwork — a timeless reminder of global craftsmanship and soulful journeys.
Framing Option
We work with Heron Framing, a local artisan framer known for their meticulous craftsmanship. Each textile is hand sewn onto a complementary mount and framed in real wood, enhancing the natural tones and textures of the piece. Framing transforms these textiles into timeless artworks, ready to hang and admire in your home.
