A large, square shaped, tribal kilim from the vicinity of Bidjar in Persian Kurdistan. Such kilims are referred to as "ru-korsi", a cover for the low table (korsi), around which the family or guests gather for meals and other special occasions. This is a large example, woven in two symmetrical halves and joined with a seam in the middle. A simple old weaving with great modern/minimalist appeal.
