Ararat Rugs Shirvan Rug, 19th C. Antique Caucasian Revival Carpet Natural Dyed
About the Item
This is an unusual stylized version of the Caucasian shield-like palmettes design rug from the late 19th century, Shirvan region, Caucasus area. Shirvan is one of the principal weaving areas of the Caucasus, stretching from the central east coast some three or four hundred kilometers inland. Located within it are several towns that, according to Kerimov and Schürmann, have become associated with particular designs; these include Bidjov, Marasali, Khila, Surahani, Baku, and Saliani. Many authors also include Chajli and Akstafa rugs, although we have included the former with Gendje pieces and the latter have been treated as a separate sub-group. There are, of course, many rugs which, both structurally and stylistically, can be assigned with some degree of confidence to Shirvan but not to any particular place within it (although many authors and dealers would maintain that it is possible to differentiate, again on structural evidence, between rugs from the north and south of the region). This rug strongly suggests a totemic, avatar-like origin, like the similar Genje examples, with a series of borders and floral motifs. Whichever weaving center produced this rug, it has a rare design of great charm and exceptional color. The design of the rug is interpreted by our designers, and soft colors are used for this rug.

ARARAT RUGS
We know and believe that the geography we come from, our past, and our lifestyle are the most important bond between us to carry the oriental carpet art and culture to the next generations along with our core values in our ongoing growth journey.
We are aware that the way to achieve this goal and carry this priceless art and culture to the future depends on a lot of work with all our people every day while adhering to our core values.
For us, art is meaningful in the sense that it brings together various cultures around the world. It is an honor for us that oriental carpet art and culture have been instrumental in this for centuries and that we are a part of this business.
We are tirelessly keeping an eye on auction house information around the world about carpets. New York's Metropolitan, London's Victoria & Albert Museums, and other famous art museums, as well as small specialized museums that house private collections, and books about oriental carpets to collect information on outstanding carpet designs and patterns from around the world. It's our Self-improving and Self-developing culture.
As Turkish Culture of Hospitality, the Kurdish Culture of Generosity, and as Japanese Culture of Business Punctuality; are the most important values that this multicultural background has taught and bequeathed to us. It is essential and valuable for us that you feel this feeling not only by looking at our oriental carpets but from the moment you contact us.

Heinrich Kirchheim, Hali Publications Ltd, 1993 nr.2. This is the best-known example of a Star Kazaks rug from the Mid 19th century from the Central Caucasus area. Star Kazak rugs are considered to be the most desirable of all post-classical Caucasian types and are much in demand among collectors. Star Kazaks are usually called in English ‘star’ Kazak and the second ‘swastika’, although their interlocking design can be interpreted as a version of the star; some of the second types have the swastika motifs standing in greater isolation on a less busy field. However, as with descriptions of Oriental carpet designs generally, the term ‘swastika’ is more one of convenience than reality; pieces of this design can often be found described in the literature as either ‘eternity symbol’ Kazaks or ‘pinwheel’ Kazaks...Category
