About the Item

Antique Karabagh botanic brown handmade wool carpet Size: 6'10" × 9'6" (208 × 289 cm) This elegant 19th-century Karabagh rug from the South Caucasus region is a fine example of the area's rich weaving tradition, known for its Persian-influenced, floral aesthetic. Diverging from the angular, geometric motifs typical of Caucasian rugs, this piece embraces a lush, botanical composition rendered in a painterly style, echoing the tastes of 19th-century European decorative arts. The field is set in a deep mocha brown ground (similar to Pantone 476 C), which provides a dramatic contrast to the delicately rendered pastel floral motifs in tones of dusty blush, warm ivory, soft peach, and parchment beige. These florals—reminiscent of overblown garden roses and trailing foliage—are scattered in a flowing, asymmetrical layout that gives the piece a sense of organic movement. The wide border features stylized vine-scrolls and abstract floral emblems in faded peach and sand hues, further enhancing the visual depth and softness of the composition. The color palette is restrained yet sophisticated, with warm neutrals and muted pinks harmonizing beautifully against the dark backdrop. Woven by hand with an all-wool pile, this Karabagh rug reflects a European sensibility translated through a Caucasian lens, making it an ideal piece for interiors that appreciate antique character with a romantic, understated elegance. Its graceful design and subdued palette lend themselves to both traditional and contemporary settings. 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.
