About the Item

Authentic Tribal Legacy: Antique Handmade Persian Kurdish Rug Uncover the rich history and bold artistry of this handmade antique Persian Kurdish rug, a truly unique piece woven from robust natural wool in the tribal regions of Persia around the 1880s. Kurdish rugs are highly prized for their striking geometric patterns, vibrant natural dyes, and sturdy construction, reflecting the nomadic traditions and artistic spirit of their weavers. This collectible rug, while showcasing some delightful age wear and a beautifully low pile, has undergone old, sympathetic restoration, ensuring its good condition for a piece over 140 years old. Bold Medallion and Densely Patterned Field This captivating Kurdish rug commands attention with its prominent central diamond-shaped medallion, rendered in bold red and blue, and intricately filled with geometric and stylized star-like motifs. The deep blue field that surrounds the medallion is densely packed with an energetic array of repeating geometric shapes, stylized blossoms, and starbursts, creating a mesmerizing tapestry of tribal artistry. The vibrant colors, including a striking combination of deep blue and vivid red, alongside accents of cream, light blue, green, and hints of yellow, add to its spirited character. Multiple, distinct borders frame the central design, each echoing the rug's strong geometric theme. The main border, in a contrasting red, features repeating geometric floral motifs, while the inner and outer guard borders add further complexity with smaller, intricate patterns and stripes. The hand-knotted wool pile, now beautifully low from decades of use, offers a tactile texture that speaks to its authentic journey through time. Collectible Wool & Enduring Charm Hand-knotted with time-honored techniques, this wool rug is a testament to the enduring quality of tribal weaving. Its "some age wear" and "low pile" are characteristic of its genuine antique status, adding to its authenticity and unique charm. The "old restoration" has been carefully done to preserve its integrity, making it a valuable and collectible piece of textile history. A Statement Piece with Historical Depth Measuring approximately 9 feet 4 inches by 3 feet 7 inches (288 cm x 114 cm), this antique Persian Kurdish rug is perfectly sized as a runner for a hallway, a unique accent in a living room, or a vibrant addition to a study. Its bold geometric design, rich color palette, and authentic tribal character make it an ideal complement for bohemian, eclectic, rustic, global-inspired, or Southwestern interiors, bringing unparalleled warmth and historical narrative to your home. As a collectible from the 1880s, this rug is more than a floor covering; it is a piece of art that carries stories from a bygone era. 3.
