A striking piece of tribal heritage, this antique Kurdish rug from Persia (4.2 × 10 ft) displays a bold geometric rhythm with repeating lozenge medallions stacked vertically through the field. Woven in a rich blend of earth tones — walnut brown, camel, and faded ivory — the pattern alternates between dense boteh motifs and subtly banded medallions, each edged with sharp angular outlines.
The hand-knotted wool construction gives the rug a tactile, slightly rugged texture — a mark of its mountain village origins. The border, adorned with stylized rosettes and elemental cross forms, frames the central design in a grounded, symmetrical harmony. Ideal for narrow gallery spaces or hallways, this runner adds cultural depth and rustic sophistication to its setting.
