About the Item

1900s Caucasian Karabagh handmade wool carpet in red, orange and brow Size: 7'9" × 14'3" (236 × 434 cm) This exceptional antique Karabagh rug, dating to the early 1900s, exemplifies the refined elegance and decorative boldness for which Caucasian weavings—particularly those from the Karabagh region—are revered. Rooted in traditional craftsmanship and infused with the artistic flair of Russian and Persian influences, this piece stands as a testament to the region’s dynamic textile heritage. The rug features a rare terracotta to rosewood-brown field that sets the stage for a lavish allover botanical pattern of trailing vines, floral bouquets, and leafy scrollwork in soft rose, pale peach, coral, slate blue and muted sage. The composition is both structured and lyrical, with symmetrical arrangements that feel at once formal and richly organic. This visual rhythm evokes the artistry of European textiles, particularly those of French Aubusson and Savonnerie tapestries, but with the coarser, tactile charm of a handwoven tribal carpet. A wide border frames the central field with scrolling rosettes and stylized foliage in complementary tones, lending depth and cohesion to the overall design. The subtle abrashed variation in the wool pile enhances the antique character, testifying to the age and authenticity of this piece. Woven in hand-spun wool with natural dyes, this Karabagh rug offers both durability and a soft, time-worn patina. Its generous proportions and moody elegance make it a perfect statement piece for a formal dining room, entryway, or salon. This is more than just a decorative textile—it is a woven document of cultural dialogue, where East and West, rustic tradition and refined taste converge in perfect harmony. Expertly curated by Doris Leslie Blau, this rare rug is a testament to centuries of weaving artistry. Doris Leslie Blau offers a broad and varied pricing spectrum, accommodating collectors and designers across a range of budgets—from modest vintage finds to rare, museum-worthy masterpieces.
