Originating from the skilled Kurdish weavers of Persia, renowned for their robust construction and captivating geometric designs, this piece is a testament to authentic village weaving traditions. This beautiful Kurdish runner features a captivating and uncluttered design, characterized by a series of eight small axial medallions gracefully arranged across its field. These medallions are rendered in a deep abrash navy blue, showcasing subtle tonal variations that add depth and character, indicative of traditional dyeing methods and the rug's genuine age. The medallions, along with the terracotta field, are subtly adorned with delicate small paisley forms, adding a layer of intricate detail to the overall geometric composition.
