Hallway Runner Rugs (3.05ft x 17.04ft), Country of Origin: Iran / Persia, Circa Date: 1900s. This exceptional piece exemplifies the robust, highly geometric style characteristic of the kurdish weaving tradition. Hand-knotted using durable, lustrous wool, this textile was created during the early 20th century, representing the peak of nomadic craftsmanship within the region. The narrow, elongated format is dominated by a saturated field of deep indigo, a hallmark of many high-quality blue color rugs from this period. Against this rich backdrop, a complex arrangement of repeating diamond and hexagonal medallions unfolds, rendered in vibrant madder red, saffron yellow, and ivory. The use of natural dyes provides a depth and patina that only a century of careful preservation can achieve.
