About the Item

This Mid-20th century Persian Kurdish Pictorial rug, measuring 1' 7" x 2' 7", presents a dynamic interplay of bold colors and tribal iconography that capture the essence of Kurdish weaving traditions. Woven in rich crimson tones as the dominant field color, it features a striking series of stylized geometric medallions flanked by angular motifs, all rendered in shades of dark blue, ivory, and saffron. Scattered throughout the field are lively animal figures, including stylized horses and birds, adding a narrative and symbolic dimension to the design. These figures, often tied to themes of protection and fertility, are signature elements of Kurdish tribal artistry. The composition is framed by a serrated border in camel brown, adorned with diamond rosettes and simple geometric devices that complement the vibrant energy of the field. This small yet expressive rug exemplifies the balance of playfulness and structure that makes Kurdish weavings so distinct and collectible.
