This Kurdish rug was woven in Eastern Anatolia during the 19th century.
It features vertically stacked boxes, each filled with scattered diamonds across saturated grounds of color. The diamond motifs serve both as protective emblems and as a kind of visual chant, anchoring the eye while the overall composition moves with the spontaneity of Kurdish village life. The palette is classic and earthy with madder red, saffron gold, deep indigo and teal with ivory highlights animating the zigzag borders.
A beautiful and authentic artifact, perfect for collectors of tribal Anatolian textiles. Full of raw charm and cultural soul.
In Good but very worn and unrepaired. As found condition with only a professional wash done.
