About the Item

This Early 20th century Caucasian Shirvan rug, measuring 3' 8" x 4' 8", is a striking example of the geometric artistry characteristic of the Shirvan weaving tradition. The rug is defined by a repeating lattice of octagonal medallions, each filled with highly stylized botanical and angular motifs, giving the composition a sense of rhythm and movement. The warm golden-brown field is accented with touches of soft blues, muted reds, and earthy tones, creating a subtle yet dynamic palette that enhances the intricate geometry. The border system frames the central field with multiple guard bands and a main border filled with angular meanders and stepped devices, complementing the crisp geometry of the interior. The interplay of strong linearity with subtle color shifts gives the rug both balance and vibrancy. Rugs of this type were prized for their durability and aesthetic precision, making them versatile pieces for both decorative display and practical use.
