About the Item

72857 Distressed Antique-Worn Persian Kurdish Rug, 03'04 x 05'07. Originating from Kurdish regions primarily in Iran, but also found in parts of Iraq, Turkey, and Syria, Persian Kurdish rugs are revered for their quality, craftsmanship, and distinctive designs. Handwoven using high-quality wool, these rugs boast bold geometric patterns and vibrant colors, often obtained from natural dyes, showcasing the weavers' deep-rooted cultural heritage and traditions. Despite their renown for durability and resilience, some Persian Kurdish rugs exhibit distressed characteristics, such as worn patches or frayed edges, adding to their allure and hinting at their rich history of use and passage through time. Alongside their aesthetic appeal, these rugs incorporate symbolic elements representing themes like fertility and protection, transforming them into not only exquisite works of art but also practical floor coverings that infuse warmth and character into any space. Combining tribal enchantment with modern rustic appeal, this hand-knotted wool distressed antique Persian Kurdish rug is a captivating vision of woven beauty with nomadic charm. At its core lies a serrated hexagon lozenge, embellished with tribal gul motifs and flanked by double concentric lozenge pendants, exuding a sense of tribal mystique and cultural heritage. Against a neutral beige backdrop, a subtle hexagon lattice adds depth to the composition, hinting at the rug's intricate craftsmanship and time-worn appeal. Radiating from the corner spandrels are equally captivating tribal gul motifs, reminiscent of traditional medallion designs and adding visual intrigue to the rug's overall aesthetic. Complementing these motifs is a meandering tribal border, accented by inner and outer crows feet guard borders, which elegantly frame the distressed Persian Kurdish rug. Despite its worn appearance, the rug retains its innate charm and character, embodying the stories and journeys woven into its fibers over generations. In its distressed state, this Persian Kurdish rug not only serves as a captivating piece of decor but also carries a sense of history and authenticity. Each imperfection, whether it be a faded color or a frayed edge, adds to the rug's rustic charm and timeless appeal, making it a cherished addition to any space seeking to blend tradition with contemporary style. Rendered in variegated shades of beige, tan, red, blue, orange, pink, aubergine, brown, rust, eggplant, and light yellow with other accent colors. Distressed. Desirable Age Wear. Abrash.
