Antique Blue Tribal Kurdish Hallway Runner Rug

$12,700.00

Antique Kurdish Hallway Runner Wool Navy Rug, Circa Date: 1850s. This exceptional piece represents the rugged and deeply symbolic weaving traditions of the Kurdish tribes of Persia, dating back to the mid-19th century. Its narrow, elongated form is perfectly suited for high-traffic corridors, defining it as a superior example of hallway runner rugs. The central field is dominated by a rich, deeply saturated indigo ground—a hallmark of high-quality natural dyeing techniques employed during this era. Against this profound backdrop, a series of highly stylized botanical elements and repeating Tree of Life motifs are rendered in warm tones of madder red, ochre, and ivory. The use of this deep color places it among the finest blue color rugs available from this period. Framing the dark field is a striking, wide primary border rendered in a contrasting pale gold and beige.
