Ararat Rugs Ordutch-Konagkend Kuba Rug Caucasian Revival Carpet Natural Dyed

About the Item

The design source of the rug comes from the book Caucasian Carpets, E. Gans-Reudin, Thames and Hudson, Switzerland 1986, pg.284. This is a spectacular example of the Orducth-Konagkend type rug in the late 19th century in the Kuba region, Caucasus. There are three principal designs for rugs attributed to Konagkend ( Konakkent or Konakhend ). The first has a large cruciform medallion, the second, called by Kerimov and Schürmann 'Ordutch-Konagkend', has a series of large octagons, and the third, and probably best known, has a stiff, angular lattice based on hexagonal forms. Each type has a quite different aesthetic appeal and in each case, the design is reminiscent of other rugs. The cruciform medallion type usually has a bright, light palette and in both color and design is reminiscent of Kurdish weavings and certain Turkish village rugs. The 'Ordutch-Konagkend' pieces have strong affinities with Baku and other north Shirvan rugs, and the lattice type is the closest to the concept of design most normally associated with Kuba as well as having links with earlier groups of, principally Turkish, carpets. This rug has unique rows of cruciform medallions in the large border with a nicely decorated flower lattice in the center. Our designers interpret the design of this rug and soft colors are chosen for this rug.

  • Ararat Rugs Dragon Rug, Antique Caucasian Revival Carpet, Natural Dyed
    By Ararat Rugs
    Located in Tokyo, JP
    There has long been a fascination with the symbolism of the dragon and its depiction in carpet weavings. The design of ‘Dragon’ carpets consists of a field pattern composed of different colored overlaid lattices formed of pointed, serrated leaves creating intersecting lozenges, which alternately contain palmettes and are flanked by confronting stylized dragons, birds, or animal figures. The most archaic of the ‘Dragon’ carpets include dragon motifs with birds and running animals relatively naturalistically drawn, which stand either alone or in confronting pairs facing a tree. It has been suggested that the earliest examples of the Caucasian ‘Dragon’ carpets...

  • Caucasian Seichour Kuba rug
    Located in San Francisco, CA
    Kuba rugs designated as Seichor, are known for their distinctive vibrant palette, with prominent medium blues, scarlet reds and accents in pink and gold. Stylistically, these pieces often reflect the European and particularly French taste of the late nineteenth century and this can be seen in the almost Rococo articulation of the lattice and palmettes drawn in this rug. This piece, however, is well grounded within the weaving traditions of the Caucasus. Ultimately, it is a small, highly stylized rendition of the classical Caucasian “Dragon Carpets...
