Why Sellingantiques dated this piece to THE 1920s:
Wool foundation on the reverse: traditional village hand-knotted structure.
Stepped Memling gul motifs: traditional geometric pattern from north-west Persia.
Uneven hand-spun wool yarn: artisan village weaving before synthetic mass production.
Wear down towards the knot collars: many decades of gentle domestic use.
Pink highlights alongside natural earthy dyes: early twentieth-century regional dye palettes.

This is an independent date report produced by Sellingantiques using its own proprietary system. The process uses the photographs shown on this page. The system is never told the date the dealer has declared. This report shows that the two dates corroborate.

This antique Kurdish long rug runner dates to the first quarter of the twentieth century, originating from North West Persia in a tribal and nomadic style. The hand-knotted woolen pile displays a low weave overall with a small repile and a dark mark near the lower end, finished with secured ends, sides, and short fringed borders. The colour palette includes warm brown, tan, cream, and dark brown alongside scattered pink tones. The surface pattern incorporates repeated geometric octagonal medallions, Memling gul motifs, stepped stars, and a patterned geometric border. It measures 247 cm high, 106 cm wide, and 0.6 cm deep at the widest points, excluding the fringes. This textile works well in hallways, narrow corridors, or bedrooms to add warmth and pattern to a floor space.

FAQs

Antique Kurdish rugs are traditional hand-woven textiles created by Kurdish nomadic and semi-nomadic tribes across Western Asia. These pieces typically feature bold geometric motifs, saturated natural dyes, and durable wool foundations tailored for long, narrow spaces such as corridors.

Kurdish rugs are hand-knotted predominantly using hand-spun sheep wool for both the pile and the warp and weft foundation. The wool is dyed using vegetable and natural sources, resulting in rich tones of brown, terracotta, cream, and pink.

Authentic Kurdish runners feature thick wool construction, hand-knotted pile, and distinct geometric motifs such as stepped medallions, octagons, and stylized stars. Abrash, or subtle tonal variations in the hand-dyed yarns, also indicates hand-woven authenticity.

Tribal runners provide texture and geometric pattern to elongated spaces such as hallways, entryways, or wide corridors. They pair well alongside dark timber floorboards or neutral stone flooring to add warmth and visual weight.

Vacuum regularly without a rotating beater bar to prevent pile damage, and use an underlay to reduce friction and wear. Spot clean spills immediately with mild soap and water, and seek professional specialist cleaning for deep restoration.
