Antique Kurdish Persian Blue 1890s Blue Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional piece is a testament to the enduring tradition of antique rugs from the border regions of Persia and Kurdistan. The strong, saturated palette immediately captures attention, setting a sophisticated yet primal tone. Woven during the late Qajar period, the field employs a magnificent, almost inky deep blue color ground, which allows the vibrant secondary colors—rust red, ochre, and ivory—to radiate with clarity. The composition utilizes a highly successful allover design of repeating, serrated hexagonal medallions, characteristic of nomadic artistry. The robust construction and bold geometric vocabulary are hallmarks of authentic kurdish weaving, reflecting the rugged aesthetic preferred by weavers in the Zagros Mountains.
