About the Item
78946 Antique Caucasian Shirvan Kilim Rug, 07'00 x 10'01. This exquisite handwoven wool antique Caucasian Shirvan kilim rug, crafted by the master weavers of the Shirvan region in the southern Caucasus, is a brilliant display of tribal artistry and craftsmanship. With its dynamic interplay of vibrant geometric motifs, this antique Caucasian kilim is a testament to the deep cultural heritage and artistic traditions of the nomadic weavers. The rug’s striking use of color—bold reds, deep blues, greens, and soft beige—interwoven with intricate patterns, creates a lively composition that commands attention while telling a story steeped in tradition.
The Caucasian kilim rug is characterized by a series of wide horizontal bands, each filled with ambiguous medallions and geometric tribal motifs, a hallmark of Shirvan kilim design. These medallions, each meticulously woven in alternating colors, symbolize protection and fertility, reflecting the weavers' beliefs in safeguarding the household and ensuring prosperity. The interspersed zigzag and cross motifs further enhance the protective qualities of the flatweave Shirvan rug, believed to ward off evil and bring harmony to the home. The fine detailing in the repeating patterns is a reflection of the weavers' precision and their deep connection to their craft.
The sawtooth border of this antique Shirvan kilim rug is are equally intricate. These motifs serve not only as decorative elements but also as symbols of continuity, representing the cyclical nature of life and the passage of time. The kilim’s striped composition, alternating between intricate patterns and more open spaces, creates a sense of rhythm and movement that evokes the nomadic lifestyle of the Shirvan people. Each color and symbol used in the flatweave rug is imbued with cultural significance, making this piece not only a work of art but also a deeply personal expression of the weaver’s world.
A piece like this antique Caucasian Shirvan kilim rug is more than just a functional textile; it is a cultural artifact that embodies the spirit of a time and place. The natural dyes, which have aged gracefully over the decades, lend the antique Caucasian kilim rug a rich patina that speaks to its authenticity and historical value. Whether displayed on the floor or as a wall hanging, this woven wonder brings with it a sense of history, craftsmanship, and the enduring beauty of Caucasian tribal weaving traditions. Its timeless appeal makes it a treasured addition to any collection, evoking a sense of warmth and cultural depth in any space it inhabits.
