About This Kordi
Where it comes from
This is a Kordi rug, also written Kurdi, a tribal weaving attributed to Kurdish weavers across the wide arc of western Iran, from Kurdistan and Kermanshah into Khorasan, measuring 288 x 168 cm (9'5" x 5'6"). Kurdish weaving is known for its robust wool structure and its swing between bold geometry and soft floral work; this piece sits at the ordered, floral end of that range.
What you see
A deep brick red fills the field edge to edge, carrying a fine all-over Mahi lattice of diamonds, rosettes and serrated leaves, drawn with a steadiness that leaves no medallion to interrupt it. Between the red field and the wide navy border, a slim powder-blue guard stripe marks the change, a small pale note against two saturated colours. The border carries pink and cream palmette vines across the navy ground, closed off by a narrow ivory line at the very edge.
How it was made
The rug is hand-knotted with the symmetric knot on a cotton warp, in hand-spun wool at 128,000 to 160,000 knots per square metre - a density that let the weaver, working from memory rather than a drawn plan, hold the lattice even across the full width of the field. The pile stands 15 mm, spun by hand from local wool, and forty to sixty years have worn it to a soft matte surface, with only the quiet variation that hand-spun wool always carries.
At home
This rug suits a dining table or a living room seating group, big enough to stand alone without a wall behind it. The brick red warms a pale floor and holds against dark wood, the navy border keeping it anchored rather than loud. Underfoot the pile is dense and springy, made for daily use. The red shifts through the day's light, the pale blue guard stripe staying its one quiet note.

Questions about this rug
Which room is this rug for?
At 288 × 168 cm (4.84 m²) this is a medium rug. It works in front of a sofa, in front of a bed or in a study. It is too small for a dining table — there you want about 80 cm of clearance so a chair does not tip over the edge when pushed back.
Is this rug hand-knotted?
Yes, knotted by hand — knot by knot on a loom, not machine-made. The density is 128,000 to 160,000 knots per square metre; across 4.84 m² that is roughly 620,000 to 770,000 individual knots, every one of them tied by hand.
How do I care for this rug?
Hand-spun wool still carries its own lanolin, which keeps liquid sitting on the surface for a moment: blot quickly, with clear water and a light cloth, working inwards and without rubbing. Otherwise regular vacuuming along the pile is enough. Turn the rug once or twice a year so light and footfall reach it evenly.
