About the Item

Perdehs were used as tent dividers by the Kurdish tribes of Eastern Anatolia. Each flat-woven wool panel is individually dip-dyed and subsequently hand-stitched to the other panels. The nature of dip-dyeing confers a painterly effect, as if each panel had been colored with brushstrokes. The resulting combination of contrasting colors is another example of the modernity of tribal textile art.

Antique Minimalist Jajim Flat-Woven Rug with Vertical Polychrome Stripes
