This Kurdish tribal rug originated in the Persian region around 1920. Characterized by its distinctive tribal motifs, it features a vibrant blue background that serves as the foundation for intricate patterns, creating a visually dynamic piece. The border of the rug is colored in camel, providing an elegant contrast to the blue tones that dominate the central field.

Crafted entirely from wool, both the warp and weft are composed of this natural material, enhancing the rug's durability and texture. The use of wool on wool is a traditional method in Persian rug-making, offering a soft yet resilient surface.

Kurdish rugs are known for their symmetrical knotting technique, a hallmark of their design. This specific rug likely showcases patterns influenced by the diverse clans within the Kurdish population, integrating recognizable motifs that may include curvilinear shrubs and floral elements, typical of their artistic traditions.

As an antique piece, this rug represents not only a functional item but also a cultural artifact, highlighting the traditional craftsmanship that has been passed down through generations. Predominantly hand-knotted by women, the techniques employed draw from centuries-old practices that reflect the weavers' lifestyle, whether nomadic or settled.

This rug stands out due to its unique design and historical background, embodying the rich cultural tapestry of the Kurdish weavers in the early 20th century. Each pattern and color selection offers insight into the artistry and daily lives of its creators, making it a significant and authentic piece of Persian Kurdish textile heritage.
