This antique South Caucasian Kurdish rug dates from circa 1920 and follows a traditional Caucasian tribal style. Hand-knotted from wool, the piece presents a thick, heavy structure with a medium pile and even wear throughout the surface. The design incorporates a rich red field covered in geometric star motifs, patterned borders, and a diamond grid pattern in shades of blue, orange, white, and dark green. Fringe threads are visible along the top and bottom ends of the textile. Measuring 175 cm high by 138 cm wide and 1 cm deep, the floor covering is hand-washed and ready for display. Suitable for heavy domestic use, the durable rug provides practical floor protection and warmth in a living room, hallway, or study. Placed over wooden flooring or tiles, the tribal wool floor covering introduces vibrant colour and traditional village motifs to domestic interiors. The thick weave handles daily foot traffic while maintaining its decorative character in a home today.

FAQs

Woven in the Caucasus region during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these rugs are characterised by bold geometric motifs, rich natural dyes, and tribal weaving traditions unique to nomadic Kurdish weavers.

They are hand-knotted using hand-spun sheeps wool for both the pile and the foundation warp and weft, coloured with organic vegetable and plant-based dyes.

Authentic pieces exhibit asymmetrical hand-knotted construction, slight geometric design variations, natural colour abrash throughout the pile, and an all-wool foundation.

A colourful tribal rug provides geometric structure and historic texture when placed over wood floors in minimalist, mid-century, or eclectic living spaces.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only attachment without a rotating brush bar, rotate annually to distribute foot traffic evenly, and clean liquid spills immediately using cold water.
