Ararat Rugs Chelaberd Karabakh Rug 19th C. Caucasian Revival Carpet Natural Dyed

About the Item

The source of the rug comes from the book Caucasian Carpets, E. Gans-Reudin, Thames and Hudson, Switzerland 1986, pg.57. This is a large medallion rug from the late 19th century, Karabakh, Chelaberd region (Tchelaberd, a village slightly to the southeast of Chondzoresk), Caucasus area. At Chelaberd, carpets were manufactured according to strict regulations; and, as a result, dimensions, motifs, and borders are approximately the same throughout. This example bears large medallions on its red ground; the colored features Stand out well against the white ground. There has been all manner of suggestions as to the identity of this cruciform motif spiked with long-stemmed flowers: according to various traditions, it has been taken for a bird in flight, a sun flashing its beams of light, crossed swords, or even the coat of arms of a family or town. As a result, this type of carpet is habitually called an ‘Eagle Kazak (Adler in German)’, ‘Sun or Sunburst Kazak’, ‘Sword’, or ‘Escutcheon’ Carpet. A multiplicity of elements complete the decor in the field; figures, animals, flowers, rosettes, suns, and crosses. The small lozenge set in the heart of the medallion is delicately patterned with flowers in the corners and on the red ground. The design of this rug is interpreted by our designers and the most appropriate colors to match the original are used for this rug.
