Antique
Kurdish Khorjin
Size: 1 foot 8 inch by 3 foot 5 inch.
This dyes in this piece are spectacular. The aubergine is about as good
as I have ever seen. The reds are spectacular as is the green. There
is, as one would expect in a piece of this age, a corrosive brown but
fortunately it is used very sparingly in the outer guard border.
This is piece dates to Circa 1890. All the dyes look Natural. It is a
handmade pile weaving from Iran. It is handmade and in very
good condition. The bottom right corner is fine the skirt just rolled.
