Antique Kurdish Persian Allover Floral Hand Knotted Hallway Runner Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional piece is a powerful example of 19th-century tribal weaving, originating from the highly respected kurdish weaving tradition. The deep, saturated colors and robust wool construction confirm its status as a highly desirable antique rug from the late Qajar era. The main field is dominated by a rich, inky indigo, providing a striking backdrop for the repeating allover boteh pattern rendered in madder red, rust, and subtle touches of yellow ochre. The use of natural dyes has resulted in a beautiful abrash and patina, enhancing the depth of the central blue color rugs field. The intricate, densely packed design maintains a rhythmic, almost architectural quality despite its tribal origin.
