Antique Shadda Flat-Woven Rug, 19th Century

About the Item

Antique Caucasian Shadda Flat-Woven Rug, 19th Century This fine Caucasian flat-woven cover or ‘shadda’ was woven in two halves and employs four different flatweave techniques. Alternation in the color of the warp results in a pleasant shift of color from blue to red. Pieces such as this are thought to have been made as dowry objects. This piece employs an array of embroidered geometric elements as well as traditional motifs such as animals and talismanic amulets common to the folk weaving tradition of various Turkic weaving groups throughout Azerbaijan, the greater Caucasus, and Northwest Persia.

Antique Talish Rug, 19th Century
Located in San Francisco, CA
Antique Caucasian Talish Rug, 19th Century The Talish, or Talysh, are an ethnic Iranian minority traditionally inhabiting the border region of Azerbaijan straddling Northwest Persia and the South Caucasus. While the vast majority of Talish pieces are thought to have been woven in the southeast Caucasus, there seems to be some diversity of weave within the group; a few seemingly early Talish design pieces have even been ascribed to weaving centers in neighboring Anatolia. This Talish rug, while using the eponymous rosette border and long and narrow format, is quite different than most of the type. A madder red main border is flanked by colorful blue and green guards...
