FAQs

Quchan Kurd carpets originate from the Khorasan region in northeast Persia, woven by Kurdish tribes relocated there in the seventeenth and nineteenth centuries. They are traditionally characterised by geometric motifs, strong indigo blues, and madder red grounds.

Authentic pieces feature handspun sheeps wool for both the pile and the foundation, often employing wool or goat hair for the selvedges and warps. Natural vegetable dyes such as madder root, indigo, and walnut husk create the rich, saturated palette.

Authenticity is determined by examining the knot density, handspun irregular wool texture, natural dye variations known as abrash, and the specific tribal iconography such as stepped medallions and latch-hook motifs characteristic of Kurdish weavers.

These textiles add warmth and texture to contemporary spaces and can be layered over larger neutral flooring. Their bold geometry bridges the gap between minimalist modern rooms and eclectic traditional schemes.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional organic washing when necessary, and avoiding direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight to protect the natural vegetable dyes.
