5'7 x 10'3 Hand-Knotted Persian Kurdish Area Rug

Item Details

This authentic hand-knotted Kurdish rug features a bold, graphic composition centered on a large charcoal hexagonal medallion. The medallion is densely populated with geometric floral icons, set against a saturated madder-red field that exhibits striking horizontal abrash—a hallmark of traditional small-batch dyeing. Deep plum-colored stepped spandrels anchor the corners, while the field is further animated by scattered celestial and tribal symbols. Framing the central work is an intricate geometric border of repeating rosettes on an ivory ground. Woven with high-quality hand-spun wool, this textile represents the rugged durability and expressive folk-art tradition of the Kurdish tribes of Northwest Iran.
