About the Item
A charming indigo ground antique Shirvan rug, decorated by a central totemic-like element composed of an alternation of white and light blue hooked motif, flanked by a dense array of stylised quadrupeds of different size and type, as well as by anthropomorphic figures who appear almost as if hiding within the composition. Antique Caucasian rugs of this type have always been appreciated for the purity of its tribal iconography as well as by the quality of the colours which, like in this case, are particularly vivid because of the strict use of natural dyes.
A genuine antique village weaving in original condition (original sides and ends and very good overall pile), which is both of collectible value as well as highly decorative.
