Antique Kazak Carpet, c. 1920s
About the Item
The Caucasus have a rich history of rug weaving, stretching back several centuries. The region stands at the crossroads of various cultures, and its carpets reflect this in their creativity and diversity. As such, these pieces are highly sought-after, well-known for their wide range of bold, graphic tribal designs and dynamic use of vegetable-dyed colours.
This Kazak example, employs a more minimalistic, open composition, usually found in much earlier examples, with three grand scale medallions, in earthy terracotta and cornflower blue tones, stamped across a muted indigo colour field. The restrained layout of the central field is set in a playful contrast with the design along the border, with a geometric diamond motif repeated across an ivory ground. A bold layout, which lends this carpet a modern aesthetic sensibility.
Retained in very good condition for everyday use, with its borders preserved on all sides; its vegetable dyed colours have taken on a fine age-related patina.
A striking carpet, in an unusually large format compared to other examples from the region, to add tribal charm and charisma to any interior.
