About the Item

This unique Karachop carpet, dating from the late 19th century and woven using traditional methods in the Karachop region of the South Caucasus, is a captivating example, both aesthetically and culturally. Its colors, achieved with natural wool and root dyes, have deepened over time, integrating into the carpet's character. - Origin & Period: Hand-woven in the Karachop region in the last quarter of the 1800s. - Main Motif: The large octagonal form adorning the center of the rug is a symbol representing protective powers in Caucasian weaving. - Pattern Structure: The surrounding geometric figures and stylized symbols create a rhythmic composition in harmony with the region's weaving traditions. - Color Harmony: Rich tones such as red, cobalt blue, forest green, and beige imbue the rug with both warmth and elegance. - Condition: Despite its age, the motifs retain their vibrancy, and the zigzag edge patterns are still clearly visible.

Rare Caucasian Rug Caucasus Rug Size: 176×224 cm This wonderful rug is a formerly unpublished addition to a small and rare group of blue-ground Caucasian rugs whose design is dominated by a prominent decahedral gabled ivory medallion.

Mailey, Oriental Rugs in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, 1973, p.84, fig.116). The smaller lozenges that extend above and below the central medallion on the present lot, are linked by a narrow vertical channel which represents the streams and ornamental pools that feed the flowering trees and shrubs on either side. The once eight-pointed medallion, that is an archaic form found in early Anatolian and Caucasian rugs, and which continues to be used throughout the nineteenth century in Fachralo rugs...
