Antique Kazak Prayer Rug

About the Item

This antique Kazak rug, from the Caucasus region, is indeed a very rare find. It is dated using the Islamic calendar (converts to 1874) and has all the design attributes of rugs made in the Fachralo region. The pile is thick, full and supple, and the colors, all done with natural dyes, are soft and engaging. The medium blue of the central panel has a watery feeling, due to the abrash (color variations typical with natural dyes) and the geometric motifs floating on it. The photos tell the story. This 145 year old rug has no wear at all, and was probably never walked on. It retains almost all, if not all, of the qualities it had the day it came off the loom.
