About the Item

79191 Late 19th Century Antique Caucasian Shirvan Rug, 02'04 x 06'03. This hand-knotted wool antique Caucasian Shirvan rug runner, a striking piece from the Late 19th Century, is an exceptional testament to the artistry of the Caucasus region. Its field is a rich tableau of vibrant colors, showcasing a finely executed arrangement of geometric motifs, primarily composed of stylized floral patterns and repeating diamond shapes. The intricate design, composed with painstaking care, unfolds with a rhythmic elegance, drawing the eye into a mesmerizing dance of color and form. The central field, adorned with harmonious motifs, creates a dynamic yet balanced visual flow that echoes the beauty of the natural world. The Shirvan rug's radiant colors—deep blues, rich reds, and earthy golds—are punctuated by sharp contrasts and vivid accenting tones, bringing the design to life. Each floral element, meticulously woven, embodies the profound connection between the people and their environment, reflecting an understanding of nature’s cycles and a reverence for its beauty. The lush reds and blues symbolize vitality, while the bright yellow accents suggest the presence of warmth and light, enhancing the feeling of a flourishing, ever-renewing landscape. The way these colors interplay throughout the piece evokes a sense of movement, as if the flowers are blooming before your eyes, one petal unfolding after another. Surrounding the field is a wide and vibrant Bergama border, rich with bold floral and geometric patterns. The intricate borders, consisting of rosettes and repeating motifs, provide both visual depth and a sense of protection. The outermost guard bands frame the rug with their geometric precision, mirroring the internal patterns and amplifying the design's symmetrical beauty. These guard bands, woven with contrasting dark and light tones, not only serve as a stylistic feature but also as symbolic elements of harmony and balance, ensuring that the vitality within the rug’s heart remains safeguarded. This antique Shirvan rug runner, with its captivating use of color and pattern, is more than just a decorative piece—it is a living representation of cultural heritage and artistic mastery. The Shirvan rug’s design reflects a deep-rooted connection to the earth, the seasons, and the cycles of life. As an heirloom from the Late 19th Century, it carries with it the stories of those who created it, a timeless piece that will continue to evoke admiration and appreciation for generations to come. The enduring beauty and craftsmanship of this Shirvan runner ensure that it remains a cherished addition to nearly any space, bringing warmth, vibrancy, and cultural richness to its surroundings.
