KURDISH CAMELHAIR
Northwest Persian Antique Rug

(High-Decorative) Kurdish weavers were renowned for a startlingly wide range of patterns, and this unique camelhair rug follows that highly successful paradigm. Festooned with a cheerful array of festive polychrome garlands suspending vibrantly toned mini-medallions that hover over an effulgent camel field in hues of warm chestnut shifting to sand as the eye scrolls upward. Within each resulting compartment are fascinating tribal mask-like abstracted flowerheads, some of which are cleverly shaded to create a three-dimensional effect. The weaver themselves appear as a trio of skirted figures with arms wide open in the top register within the boldly blue indigo main border pattern of striking star-studded roundels and lightning bolt leaf forms.
