Ararat Rugs Six Avatars Rug - 19th C. Senna Persian Revival Carpet, 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.9. This rug is presumably made by Kurds of the Ahl-i-Haqq (Yarsani) region, a sect of the 'Cult of Angels', attributed to the village of Kandula in Southern Kurdistan, southwest of Sonqor, late 19th century. The motifs floating in the center have a religious significance: they represent the six avatars, a multi-personal representation of the divinity similar in concept to the Christian Trinity. The six are Moses, Jesus, Christ, Noah, Mithra, Sultan Sahak, and the female avatar Dayrak. The wide border has a series of alternating floral-like motifs, a characteristic south Kurdish design symbolizing turtles, used to pay homage to Khidir. These are executed in a more floral, less geometric manner. The design of this rug is interpreted by our designers, and soft colors are chosen for this rug.
This rug boasts a harmonious blend of 8 natural colors, each derived from traditional dyeing methods: Natural Wool Color 320: Specially Washed Black Chocolate 434: Pomegranate - Spurge - Madder Root Sunray Color 405: Henna Cameo Pink 436: Synthetic Dye Falu Red 400: Madder Root - Henna - Walnut Hulls Feldgrau 414: Chamomile - indigo Vidalia 35: Indigo Carrissma 161: Cochineal

We know and believe that the geography we come from, our past, and our lifestyle are the most important bond between us to carry the oriental carpet art and culture to the next generations along with our core values in our ongoing growth journey.
We are aware that the way to achieve this goal and carry this priceless art and culture to the future depends on a lot of work with all our people every day while adhering to our core values.
For us, art is meaningful in the sense that it brings together various cultures around the world. It is an honor for us that oriental carpet art and culture have been instrumental in this for centuries and that we are a part of this business.
We are tirelessly keeping an eye on auction house information around the world about carpets. New York's Metropolitan, London's Victoria & Albert Museums, and other famous art museums, as well as small specialized museums that house private collections, and books about oriental carpets to collect information on outstanding carpet designs and patterns from around the world. It's our Self-improving and Self-developing culture.
As Turkish Culture of Hospitality, the Kurdish Culture of Generosity, and as Japanese Culture of Business Punctuality; are the most important values that this multicultural background has taught and bequeathed to us. It is essential and valuable for us that you feel this feeling not only by looking at our oriental carpets but from the moment you contact us.
