Kurd Bijar / 14143

This Kurd Bijar antique rug measures 4' 9" x 10' 2" and presents a strong, linear field of red grounded by blue outlines and a layered border sequence in ivory, navy, and neutral tones. The composition is structured yet lively, with hexagonal compartments holding small floral forms and stem-like motifs that give the surface a steady rhythm. Woven in wool, it has a firm visual presence and a low level of distress that preserves the clarity of the design. Circa 1940 - 1960, it carries the measured character and graphic depth that define the Kurd Bijar tradition.
