20th Century Black Garden and Brids Karabagh Rug, ca 1920

About the Item

In the Karabagh region (literally "black garden") located south-east of the Kazak, in Armenia, are produced the homonymous carpets that are affected by the Persian influence. Karabakh's carpet weaving has developed thanks to the wealth of raw materials (local wool and natural vegetable dyes) and the ancient artisanal tradition. Iconographically there are motifs dear to the Armenians: crosses, animal vortices and plant motifs. Some pieces are decorated with designs inspired by the western taste, floral motifs of French rugs by Aubusson, reinterpreting them according to the oriental taste by the chromatic combinations that create extreme contrasts. Our carpet has a very particular composition but is typical in this typology. The design has a horizontal reading, although the rug is woven vertically. In particular, the two initials M C and the subject so romantic suggest that it was made for a specific occasion like a wedding.
