About the Item
Antique Karabagh Rug – Vibrant Caucasian Charm
Size: 5'2" × 10'5" (157 × 317 cm)
This striking antique Karabagh rug, handwoven in the Caucasus, showcases the rich artistic heritage of 19th-century Armenian weaving traditions. Measuring approximately 11' x 5', this captivating piece exemplifies the bold geometry and vibrant palette typical of Karabagh designs, making it an exquisite statement for collectors and designers alike.
The rug features a saturated midnight indigo field, densely packed with stylized rosettes, hooked medallions, and serrated floral motifs, rendered in vivid reds, crisp whites, cobalt blues, and warm coral. These elements create a rhythmic, symmetrical layout that reflects the precision and symbolic language of tribal artisanship. Each motif seems to pulse with energy, giving the rug a dynamic, almost architectural presence.
Framing the vibrant field is a complex series of borders, the main one comprising repeating geometric motifs in alternating shades of blue and red, balanced by narrower guard borders filled with stylized blossoms and tribal symbols. The contrast between the intricate detailing and bold color blocks enhances the visual depth of the design.
Woven in soft, durable wool with a dense, tactile pile, this Karabagh rug not only provides aesthetic impact but also showcases the enduring craftsmanship of its makers. Its excellent preservation and striking color harmony make it a compelling example of antique Caucasian textile art, ideal for both traditional and eclectic interiors.
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.
