The source of the rug comes from the book Antique Rugs of Kurdistan A Historical Legacy of Woven Art, James D. Burns, 2002 nr.2. This was an exclusive example of a Mina Khani lattice design mid-19th century rug from Koliya'i, Southern Kurdistan area. The mina khani is composed of a series of rows of aster flowers surrounded by circular tendrils, vines, and other flowers; it's used in many areas of southern and eastern Kurdistan and is among the most popular of all Kurdish patterns. The lattice appears to continue into infinity - as though we can see the section that is framed by the border. The design of this rug is interpreted by our designers and soft colors are chosen for this rug.
This rug boasts a harmonious blend of 11 natural colors, each derived from traditional dyeing methods: Natural Wool Color 320: Specially Washed Bistre Brown 411: Pomegranate - Madder Root Khaki 413: Dyers’s Weed Burlywood 135: Spurge - Madder Root Imperial Red 415: Madder Root Rooiboos Tea 154: Madder Root Dark Sienna 401: Madder Root - Pomegranate - Spurge Yellow Green 419: Henna - Indigo Turquoise 330: Spurge - Madder Root - Indigo - Walnut Hulls Midnight Blue 347: Spurge - Madder Root - Indigo Charleston Green 50: Spurge - Indigo
