This antique Kurdish runner, circa 1930, is a hand-knotted, one-of-a-kind textile distinguished by a softly weathered blue gray field filled with tightly repeated geometric lozenges. Its layered borders of hooked motifs, small rosettes, and angular tribal ornament create a refined frame in ivory, taupe, dusty rose, and muted teal. An ideal accent for a hallway, entryway, or bedroom.
Faded neutral tones of blue gray, ivory, taupe, dusty rose, muted teal, sage, charcoal, and sand, with a blue gray field.
Kurdish rugs are woven by the Kurdish people across a vast territory spanning northwestern Iran, eastern Turkey, southern Caucasus, and northern Iraq — one of the great tribal weaving peoples of the Middle East. Kurdish rugs are woven on a wool foundation using the symmetrical knot, and are distinguished by their bold geometric designs, long lustrous pile, and vivid natural dyes in rich reds, deep blues, and warm ivories.
Designs include medallion formats, herati-derived patterns, and bold geometric field compositions. Kurdish rugs have a directness and energy that distinguishes them from more courtly Persian work, and their superb wool quality means they wear exceptionally well. They are equally prized by collectors and by those seeking a robust, character-filled antique rug.
