Antique Quchan – Kordi Small Scatter Size Wool Multicolor Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional example of nomadic weaving originates from the Khorasan region, showcasing the distinctive geometric vocabulary of the Kordi tribes. Its age qualifies it as a true antique rug, offering a tangible connection to early 20th-century textile art and the enduring traditions of the region.

The field is characterized by a tightly organized grid of squares and stepped medallions, creating a mesmerizing, highly saturated allover design. This dense patterning, typical of tribal scatter rugs, ensures visual interest from every angle and speaks to the weaver’s mastery of complex, repeating motifs within a confined space.

Woven entirely in high-quality wool, the palette is a vibrant study in deep saturation, featuring rich indigo, madder red, and ochre yellow, balanced by earth tones. The interplay of these hues establishes a stunning multicolor jewel-tone aesthetic, reflecting the natural dye processes favored by these weaving communities and lending the piece remarkable depth.

Measuring in the traditional small scatter size, this piece is ideally suited for intimate spaces, hallways, or as an accent layer in a larger room where its detailed pattern can be appreciated. Its robust construction and historical significance make it not only a decorative element but a durable collector’s item, preserving the authentic spirit of Quchan Kordi craftsmanship. See less
