Ararat Rugs Bid Majnum on White Field Rug, 17th Century Revival, Natural Dyed

About the Item

The source of the rug comes from the book Antique Rugs of Kurdistan A Historical Legacy of Woven Art, James D. Burns, 2002 nr.45. This is a popular design employed by the Kurds, called bid majnum (or Bid Majnun, weeping willow) 17th-century rug from Sa’uj Bulagh, Eastern Kurdistan area. Four different types of trees -cypress, willow, cherry, and plane- can be depicted in these carpets, and the pattern is found on other Persian carpets from the 17th century to the present day. In addition to the weeping willow itself, there are two principal types of trees in this version of the bid majnum pattern: the plane tree with branches and tripartite leaves, and the cherry with white flowers (sakura) in bloom. The plane and cherry are often found in the field and borders of Sa’uj Bulagh rugs. The inner guard has the mountain peak pattern and this rug has many diverse colored floral figures on a white ground. The design of this rug is interpreted by our designers and vivid colors are chosen for this rug.

    The source of the carpet comes from the book 'Oriental Rugs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, by Dimand, Maurice S., and Jean Mailey, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York 1973 fig.90.' If the so-called vase-technique carpets represented the triumph of Safavid workshop weaving in the seventeenth century, another group of Safavid carpets, popularly if erroneously known as “Polonaise” or “Polish” carpets, demonstrates the extent to which Safavid weavers would go to create flashy and expensive objects of conspicuous consumption.
