18th Century Caucasian Carpet with Harshang Pattern
About the Item
An extremely rare and early Caucasian carpet from present day Armenia ornate by an infinite repeat pattern of palmettes alternated to split-leaf arabesques known also as the 'harshang' design. This derives from 17th century Safavid 'Vase' carpets from southeast Persia, migrating north as Shah Abbas began establishing weaving workshops in the Southern Caucasus. Carpets of this type were found in specific mosques of eastern Anatolia, where they were donated as prestigious gifts. Some examples, such as this one, made their way in the aristocratic families of Europe, where they remained for many generations and were always treated with great care and respect.
