This extraordinary antique Kurdish tribal rug is a powerful example of nomadic artistry, rich in symbolism and saturated with deep, natural dyes. The central field bursts with complex geometric and floral motifs woven in a striking palette of midnight indigo, madder red, ochre, and ivory. Stylized birds, abstract trees of life, and tribal medallions are arranged in a dynamic lattice, reflecting the weaver’s cultural storytelling and spiritual heritage. Framed by multiple borders with rosettes, serrated leaves, and angular vines, the composition is both bold and balanced. Handwoven with handspun wool, this rug offers exceptional texture, durability, and historical character, a true collector’s piece that embodies the essence of the Kurdish weaving tradition.
Authentic vintage and antique Kurdish rugs are hand-knotted with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and unique.
Pictures are taken in natural light to portray the most realistic colours possible. Due to the handmade and preloved nature of these rugs, slight imperfections and flaws are not considered defects.
Our rugs are professionally restored, and the fringes secured, ensuring many more years of life. Additionally, we recommend using a rug pad with a grippy back to keep your rug in place and smooth out any wrinkles that may have occurred during shipping. A rug pad will also safeguard your carpet from deterioration and, therefore, extend the life of your rug.
