Antique Caucasian Blue and Red Shirvan Rug, c. 1900

About the Item

Antique Caucasian Blue and Red Shirvan Rug, c. 1900 This exciting Shirvan rug from the east Caucasus blends a joyful design with pure fantasy. A stylized flowering shrub is drawn in the center of the field, flanked by two flowering fruit trees. An animal in combat under an anthropomorphic human-faced sun, pairs of majestic peacocks, striding deer, pomegranate trees, and rarely-seen elephants and riders fill the bottom third of the field. An inner border paints colorful shrubs drawn with ewers, birds, and even a male figure. Framing this extraordinary composition is a Classic 'harshang' or 'crab' border, which was used in rug weaving throughout the Caucasus and Northwest Persia.
