Woven by Kurdish people located in the eastern Anatolian village of Siirt, weft-faced plain weaves of this type employ silky, Angora goat hair using a technique which dates back to about 6000 BC, when the first textiles began to appear in the Fertile Crescent of Mesopotamia. This fine, old example is constructed over three panels, each embellished by a sequence of narrow horizontal stripes, alternating in white and black, with pairs of wider stripes at both ends in black with white dots. A true gem of Minimalist tribal art.
