About the Item

61167 Antique Navy Blue Persian Kurdish Rug, 04'06 x 07'02. Persian Kurdish rugs, originating from Kurdish regions primarily in Iran but also in parts of Iraq, Turkey, and Syria, are esteemed for their quality, craftsmanship, and unique designs. Handwoven with high-quality wool, they feature bold geometric patterns and vibrant colors derived from natural dyes, reflecting the weavers' cultural heritage and traditions. Renowned for their durability and resilience, these Persian Kurd rugs incorporate symbolic elements representing themes such as fertility and protection, making them not only exquisite works of art but also functional floor coverings that add warmth and character to any space. The navy blue backdrop of the antique Tabriz rug provides a striking canvas for the allover geometric pattern, which is composed of Herati motifs. These motifs carry profound symbolism deeply rooted in ancient Persian history. At the heart of the classic Herati pattern lies a flower, symbolizing beauty and growth, surrounded by curving lanceolate leaves that evoke the graceful movement of fish, symbolizing fertility and abundance. The repetition of this motif throughout the rug's design reinforces its cultural significance and connection to Persian heritage. Moreover, the hexagon, a recurring symbol within the rug's intricate design, holds its own significance. In Persian culture, the hexagon symbolizes a perfect union and soulful integration. Its presence in the Tabriz rug underscores the craftsmanship and attention to detail inherent in Persian rug making, as well as the harmonious balance achieved within the overall composition. Each hexagon woven into the rug serves as a testament to the artisan's skill and dedication to their craft, contributing to the rug's timeless appeal and enduring beauty. Finally, the rug is framed by an eight-point star border against a vibrant red backdrop, adding to its visual allure and cultural richness. The eight-point star holds symbolic significance in various cultures, often representing balance, harmony, and cosmic order. Surrounding the central motif with this border reinforces the rug's sense of completeness and unity, while the small rosette guard borders provide a delicate finishing touch, enhancing the overall elegance and refinement of the piece. In essence, every element of the rug's design, from the Herati motifs to the hexagons and border patterns, carries layers of symbolism that deepen its cultural significance and aesthetic appeal.
