20th Century Blue Field Geometric with Rhombus in Wool Nomad Kazakh, Early 1900

About the Item

The ancient Kazaks come from a mountainous region located in the heart of the Caucasus. The name is given by the town of Kazakh, which is the main center of the region, where most probably these carpets were collected and sold. The ancient Kazaks are the work of semi-nomadic shepherds and knotted with the use of the horizontal frame. The warp and the weft are in wool. The fleece is made of rather high shaved wool. The wool used is soft, velvety and very resistant to wear. The knot is that of the Turkish tradition. Every Kazak is a work of art, expression of an innate and profound sensibility of the weaver for colors and shapes. Our example of the early twentieth century is part of the "multiple medallions" type: the central field is decorated with a succession of polygons, which have the perimeter decorated with a graphic element that originates from the representation of the dragon's tail, typical of the Caucasian production, but of clear Chinese origin. The colors are lively but matched with great chromatic sensitivity.
