About the Item

Beautiful deep blue field Caucasian Shirvan rug from the late 19th century with wonderful history and soul. Antique Shirvan rugs, originating from the ancient city of Shirvan in present-day Iran, are adorned with intricate and meaningful symbols. These symbols, woven into the fabric, tell captivating stories of the region's rich history and cultural heritage. Each symbol carries its own significance, such as the tree of life symbolizing fertility and abundance, the dragon representing power and protection, the medallion symbolizing unity and cosmic harmony, and the cypress tree symbolizing eternal life and spirituality. These timeless symbols reflect the deep-rooted traditions and beliefs of the people who created these remarkable rugs centuries ago.
