This antique rug originates from Persia, specifically depicting the Luri design, known for its tribal style. Dated circa 1890, it features a navy background and a red border, with blue as the predominant hue in its design. The rug is crafted from wool on a cotton foundation.
Luri rugs originate from the Lurs, an ethnic group situated mainly in western Iran. The Luri people are known for their deep connection to mountainous regions, which is reflected in the design and craftsmanship of these rugs. The main design motifs include hooked-diamond shapes, a signature element that contributes to the aesthetic appeal and cultural significance of Luri rugs.
Hand-woven using traditional methods, Luri rugs are created with local wool, which enhances their durability and warmth. These skills are often passed down through generations, with weavers integrating personal touches into the conventional designs. This practice results in distinctive pieces that reflect individual craftsmanship.
Luri rugs also show regional variations influenced by different tribal sub-groups. Patterns such as the Mina Khani motif highlight the diversity within the Luri textiles. Historically, the weaving traditions of the Luri continued to flourish despite the political and social upheavals in Iran, notably after the fall of a ruling dynasty in the 15th century. This history underscores the cultural and historical importance of Luri rugs.
Visually, the rug features a dark blue or navy central field with motifs that vary in color, including red, yellow, white, brown, and light blue. These motifs are arranged in a repeating grid-like structure, which adds a lively contrast to the dark background.
The rug's border is divided into three parts: an inner border, a main border, and an outer border. The inner border is narrow with a cream or off-white background and a continuous vine or flower design in colors such as red, green, blue, and black. The main border, which is broader and features a rich red background, contains nested diamond or hexagon shapes filled with smaller floral or geometric patterns in hues of white, yellow, green, blue, and brown. The outer border is similar to the inner border, with a slightly narrower width and similar vine-like patterns.
The overall pattern in the central field is symmetrically arranged, adding to the visual coherence and structural integrity of the rug.
