Kurd / 12821

This Kurd runner, 102 x 528 cm, shows a deep navy central stripe flanked by ivory guards and lively red borders patterned with rosettes and lozenges. Woven in wool, the surface holds strong colour with only low wear and restrained abrash that enrich the tonal depth. Repeating geometric medallions and the disciplined border sequence convey a vernacular clarity; the piece reads as an orderly, tactile antique rug with a considered, handcrafted feeling. Circa 1915 - 1930 The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time. Subtle tonal variation keeps the drawing legible and grounded.
