In the Djoharian Collection we carry this runner as an example of Kurdish knotting at its best: thanks to the extreme compression of the knots, a rug of this construction is all but indestructible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"color:#8b0000;font-size:1.15rem;font-weight:400;letter-spacing:1px;text-transform:uppercase;margin-top:35px;\"\u003eDesign and Construction\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThree \u003cstrong\u003eivory lozenge medallions\u003c\/strong\u003e are set one above the other along the field, each filled with its own miniature garden of rosettes, palmettes and vine work in red, gold, indigo and green, and outlined by a stepped grey-blue and aubergine contour.
