This Kurdish rug, highly sought after by collectors, has a thick, heavy pile and rich colors that have remained vibrant for almost 50 years. Its unique design is sure to catch the eye of avid connoisseurs, featuring charmingly unusual details like a shortened inner border and a horizontal reserve filled with alternating rows of starburst rosettes. The rug's mature and unexpected color palette, including bold russet and glowing navy blue, adds to its overall dynamism and makes it a truly stunning piece of Persian art.

City Story
Kurdish tribes live thousands of square miles in the Middle East, mainly in eastern Anatolia (Turkey), northeastern Iraq, Syria, and Kurdistan in northwestern Iran. Back 3500 years ago, the first rug was weaved by Kurdish tribes, and still, you will find many carpets from the 18th century. Initially, Kurdish tribes weaved rugs and carpets for personal use, but when they noticed they could sell carpets at a much higher profit, they started selling them. Kurdish village rugs have geometric and primitive designs in either medallion or all-over styles. Nomadic designs, Star and stylized Hook motifs, and flower heads surround the major field patterns. The Kurdish village rugs are durable and have a wide range of eye-catching color schemes of reds, browns, black, dark blue, or, at times, ivory.
