A traditional Kurdish kilim. During winter, indoor, stripes are woven on a narrow loom and brought together. Here four stripes and a rich embroided ornaments.

Kurds live all over the Middle East. They have a very old culture, and their carpet weaving has a strong reputation. In Iran their tribes are mostly concentrated in the area of Kermanshah, and Sanandaj, but due to persecutions they have also fled much more eastwards in Khorassan.
