Kurdi Rug Iran 180 X 135 Cm

Iranian wool kurk rug, wool warp and weft, circa 1970-80. Very good condition.

Kurdi or kordi rug made by Iranian Kurds. Unlike rugs made in Iranian Kurdistan (Northwest Iran), this rug was made by the Kurds of Khorasan (Northeast Iran). The texture is very different from Senneh or Bidjar rugs.
Kurdis are excellent quality rugs. They are fine and elegant.

This kurdi in kurk wool* sees its inspiration in the antique rugs of Heriz. A large central navy blue medallion, surrounded by trees of life, peacock zoomorphs and göls (flowers), is highlighted on an abrached orange background**. Each spandrel is composed of an octagon, a tree of life, göls and zoomorphs. A wide border with floral motifs is framed by two small 'running water' borders. Beautifully finished on each side with a kilim and braided fringes.
Note: the rug is slightly trapezoidal.
*Kurk wool: fine lamb's wool collected by combing. Strong and durable wool.
**Abrache: term designating a variation of tones within the same color.
