Doris Leslie Blau 1900s Karabagh Bold Design Handmade Wool Rug

About the Item

Authentic 1900s Karabagh Bold Design Handmade Wool Rug Size: 7'1" × 18'5" (215 × 561 cm) This stunning antique Karabagh rug from the early 20th century exemplifies the unique artistic character of the Caucasus region, blending Eastern and Western influences into a captivating decorative statement. Hand-knotted circa 1900, the rug showcases a bold and refined design that reflects both Persian and European aesthetics, particularly evident in the intricate botanical motifs and stylized palmettes. At the heart of the composition is a spacious medallion-and-corner layout that provides architectural structure while allowing the rich palette of coral, ivory, black, and beige to take center stage. The medallions themselves are layered with floral abstractions, angular vines, and tribal ornamentation, giving the piece an exceptional sense of rhythm and dynamism. Surrounding the field is a series of complementary borders, the most notable of which features a sweeping vine and serrated leaf pattern set against a contrasting black ground. This frame adds a dramatic touch while enhancing the graphic clarity of the rug’s overall design. Woven with high-quality wool and natural dyes, the rug maintains its vibrancy and structural integrity, attesting to the craftsmanship of its Karabagh weavers. This is a collector-worthy textile that celebrates the legacy of Caucasian rug-making while resonating with contemporary design sensibilities. Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
