About the Item

This stunning antique Kurdish runner features a bold linear composition with a series of stacked diamond medallions in shades of ivory, chestnut, and dark brown on a saturated terracotta field. The finely detailed motifs are accentuated by a dynamic use of angular hooks and floral accents, reflecting the tribal artistry of Kurdish weavers from the late 19th to early 20th century. The ivory-toned border is richly decorated with serrated floral rosettes, creating a striking frame around the richly decorated central field. Perfectly suited for hallways, entryways, or layered interiors, this hand-knotted piece combines powerful geometric rhythm with a warm and time-softened palette. Rug Size: 4'0" × 9'9"

Vintage Persian Kurdish Tribal Area Rug/Wide Runner in Geometric Pattern in Blue
Located in Barrington, IL
Vintage Persian Kurdish tribal area rug or a wide runner, meticulously hand-knotted circa the early 1900s. Originating from the skilled Kurdish weavers of Persia, these rugs are renowned for their distinctive geometric designs, rich palettes, and the enduring quality of their village weaving traditions. This versatile Kurdish rug features a captivating geometric pattern that unfolds gracefully across its field. The central design is defined by a striking series of seven small medallions arranged in a single column, creating a strong visual anchor. The main field itself presents a harmonious interplay of deep blue and warm rust colors, providing a rich and inviting backdrop for the intricate motifs. This rug's wonderful design is further enhanced by the expert use of natural vegetable dyes. These organic pigments not only provide brilliant, saturated colors but also develop a beautiful patina and subtle tonal variations (abrash) over time, a hallmark of authentic village weavings that only adds to their beauty and character. The entire composition is elegantly framed by multiple borders, each displaying their own beautiful colors and intricate geometric designs. These layered borders provide depth and sophistication, perfectly complementing the central field and completing this charming village carpet from the early 1900s.
