72 X 69cm Antique Jaf Kurd Saddlebagface

1900 - 1920
Description

This is a colourful, antique rug in full pile. Deeply saturated natural dyes and excellent wool. Pile depth of at least 1cm means it feels very lush and would make a great rug or table cover. The playful, multicoloured diamonds are randomly assigned and I especially love the one white diamond off centre on the bottom right.

FAQs

A Jaf Kurd saddlebag face, or khorjin front, is a hand-woven wool textile produced by nomadic Jaf Kurdish tribes. Historically created as utilitarian storage bags for transport on pack animals, the decorative fronts feature distinctive geometric diamond patterns.

Traditional Kurdish saddlebag faces are hand-knotted using hand-spun sheeps wool on a durable wool warp and weft foundation. They feature saturated tones derived from traditional plant dyes and dense symmetrical knotting.

Authentic Jaf Kurd weavings are recognised by their signature diamond lattice layout filled with polychrome latch-hook motifs. The presence of natural dye abrash, irregular hand-spun yarns, and a flexible all-wool structure further indicates tribal origins.

Small tribal textiles can be mounted and framed as textured wall art in modern or bohemian interiors. They also function as accent pieces atop tables, sideboards, or upholstered ottomans.

Antique wool textiles require gentle suction-only vacuuming without a rotating brush to protect the pile fibres. Professional specialist rug cleaning is recommended, and the piece should be kept away from direct sunlight to prevent colour fading.
