About the Item

Antique Shirvan Caucasian Rug – 19th Century Masterpiece of Tribal Artistry This exquisite 19th-century Shirvan rug from the Caucasus region is a rare and captivating example of fine tribal weaving. Characterized by its dense and precise knots, this rug boasts a highly detailed and symmetrical field design featuring alternating floral rosettes and geometric boteh-like motifs, each rendered in vibrant shades of indigo, madder red, ivory, and sky blue. The field sits atop a deep brown to almost black ground, which creates a dramatic backdrop and enhances the vividness of the ornamental motifs. Multiple intricate borders—featuring classic Caucasian serrated leaves and running dog patterns—frame the central design and add layers of complexity and rhythm to the composition. The weaving technique and vegetable dyes reflect the skill and tradition passed down through generations of Shirvan artisans. Measuring ideal proportions for use as a gallery rug or collector’s piece, this antique Shirvan rug not only serves as a functional textile but also as a work of historical and artistic significance. Whether used on the floor or displayed as a wall hanging, it adds a refined ethnic character and timeless charm to any space. A true treasure for collectors of antique Caucasian rugs. The measurement of this piece is 112 x 156 cm in size.
