Persian Kurdish Rug 8x11, Repeated Allover Boteh Paisley Design, Bird Pictorials, Rare Antique Sannadaji Carpet

About this Persian Kurdish Rug

This rare antique Persian Kurdish rug, measuring approximately 8x11, showcases a vibrant allover boteh (paisley) motif—each boteh densely packed with intricate floral detailing in a rhythmic, mirrored alignment. The border is particularly striking, adorned with a charming bird pictorial band and colorful village-like geometric blocks that add a whimsical narrative quality to the composition. A piece like this not only speaks to the artistry of Kurdish weavers but carries a folkloric charm that enriches any room it enters. The lively palette and robust tribal drawing make it both a statement and conversation piece.

About Persian Kurdish Rugs

Persian Kurdish rugs are woven by Kurdish tribes predominantly in western Iran and are known for their bold character and rich color palettes. Unlike the more refined urban weavings, Kurdish rugs often feature tribal motifs like botehs, medallions, or stylized animals, all rendered with expressive flair. They’re prized for their durability, coarse knotting, and deep cultural symbolism. Many older pieces, like this one, reflect the individuality of the weaver and exhibit idiosyncratic charm not typically found in city rugs.
