The geometric design takes center stage in this captivating hand-knotted Kurdish rug from 1910, set against a deep navy field. The surface is filled with a rich array of intricate shapes and tribal motifs, woven with precision to create a rhythmic and engaging visual flow. Framed by striking teal blue borders, the design is further enhanced with repeating arrow- or comb-like motifs and other angular forms. What makes this rug distinctly Kurdish is its bold geometry, use of vibrant natural dyes, and the incorporation of symbolic tribal patterns—hallmarks of a weaving tradition deeply rooted in cultural identity and generational craftsmanship. This piece reflects the enduring spirit and artistry of Kurdish rug making.
