Antique Kurdish Hallway Runner Wool Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional example of nomadic weaving captures the robust, geometric artistry characteristic of the Kurdish tradition. The dramatic contrast between the highly detailed central field and the richly colored borders immediately draws the eye, marking it as a distinguished piece among antique rugs. The main panel features a tightly packed, repeating lattice design composed of stylized floral and geometric elements rendered in earthy reds and deep browns. The clarity of the pattern is amplified by the brilliant, undyed ivory wool ground, which provides a luminous foundation for the complex tribal iconography. Flanking the central medallion are multiple, meticulously layered borders utilizing a palette of rich madder red, rust, and striking indigo blue.
