Kurdish rug, Persia, Late 19th Century This Kurdish rug has a fantastic, whimsical feeling. Rows of diamonds cover the golden-brown, abrashed field; at the top, middle, and bottom, groups of rosettes stand in for the diamonds. In the margins of the field, a sprinkling of small folk art elements—diamonds and octagons—adds playfulness to the design and shows the kind of spontaneity that characterizes Kurdish weavers.
