This Kurdish tribal rug was woven by Kurdish weavers in western Persia. Often they used this repeating flower motifs design in the border. The emphasis with these rugs is on their colors, and those in this early piece are very vivid and interesting. The dyes are all natural and there is lovely variation, resulting in a colorful piece with great character. Colors include variegated rusty-orange, cream, taupe, and olive.
Measures: 3'5 x 10'1. See less
