The design source of the rug comes from the book Antique Rugs of Kurdistan A Historical Legacy of Woven Art, James D. Burns, 2002 nr.4. 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. This is a typically tribal and primitive treatment of an ancient pattern of linked flowers with a typical Bidjar border. The design of the rug is interpreted by our designers, and vivid colors are chosen for this rug.
This rug boasts a harmonious blend of 10 natural colors, each derived from traditional dyeing methods: Bistre Brown 411: Pomegranate - Madder Root Sunray Color 405: Henna light Grayish Yellow 406: Spurge Fragrant Cloves 302: Spurge - Madders Root Scarlet 5: Madder Root Dark Sienna 402: Madder Root - Pomegranate - Spurge - Walnut Hulls Russian Green 418: Henna - Indigo Yellow Green 419: Henna - Indigo Moss Green 27: Spurge - Indigo Navy Blue 432: Indigo - Pomegranate
