19th Century Antique Caucasian Kassim Ushak Karabagh Rug

About the Item

This rare 19th-century Caucasian Kassim Ushak rug is a striking example of antique textile artistry, prized for its exceptional craftsmanship and vibrant, geometric aesthetic. Woven with care and precision, this collectable rug features a bold layout of three prominent medallions set against an ivory ground, surrounded by richly colored borders in crimson red, indigo, and soft pastel tones. The central motifs are adorned with stylised floral and leaf elements, arranged in symmetrical harmony—a hallmark of Caucasian tribal weaving traditions. The Kassim Ushak rug displays a masterful use of colour, balance, and symbolic design, blending ancient iconography with a tribal charm that has enchanted collectors for generations. The dynamic borders, filled with hooked forms and protective symbols, add rhythmic energy to the composition, while the use of natural dyes gives the rug a warm and enduring palette that has aged gracefully over time. This piece is in excellent condition, preserving both the wool pile and original fringes, a rarity for a rug of its age. Its high artistic value, combined with the rarity of Kassim Ushak rugs on the market, makes it a standout investment for discerning collectors and design connoisseurs alike. Whether used as a floor centrepiece or a wall-mounted statement, this Caucasian Kassim Ushak rug elevates any space with its rich history, visual depth, and timeless beauty.
