Antique Kurdish Persian Allover Geometric Hand Knotted Hallway Runner Rug, Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of late 19th-century weaving showcases the robust, tribal artistry characteristic of kurdish rugs. Woven in the mountainous regions of Iranian Persian rugs, this piece embodies centuries of nomadic tradition, utilizing bold, stylized geometric motifs rather than the classical curvilinear designs of urban centers. The deep, saturated field is rendered in a rich, dark brown earth tone that provides a dramatic contrast to the vibrant secondary colors. Large, repeating hexagonal medallions dominate the central axis, filled with complex internal geometry in shades of terracotta, sky blue, and ivory.
