Here‘s a vibrant small Persian Kurdish rug that truly packs a lot of punch. Woven circa 1920, this piece carries all the character and visual energy Kurdish rugs are known for…strong geometry, graphic repetition, and motifs that feel almost symbolic. The repeating forms throughout the field read like turtles to many eyes, a motif often associated with protection, longevity, and grounded strength in village weaving traditions.
Persian Kurdish rugs were made for daily life. They were woven by hand for real use, which means durability was always part of the plan. This example shows that heritage beautifully. The wool has a low pile with a soft, supple hand and a natural sheen that catches the light just enough to bring the pattern to life. The color palette has great pop without feeling loud…inky navy, warm orange, muted olive-sage, and sailor blue against a navy ground.
Condition is good, with wear and character that run parallel to its age and history, not against it. This rug can keep up with the hustle and bustle of life and will inspire you at each glance.
Low pile, soft to the touch, visually powerful, and full of soul. A small rug with serious presence and that unmistakable Persian Kurdish energy. Please see images for full character, surface detail, and condition notes.
Handwoven with vegetable dyed wool.
