About the Item
During the 1980's there was a great resurgence of interest towards antique weavings. This prompted many innovations in the development of contemporary carpets, paying close attention towards replicating the original patterns of antique rugs as well as employing hand-spun, vegetable-dyed wool. One of the leading projects from that period was a partnership between the Russian government and the L. Kelaty Ltd. company, who was a leading rug importer based in London, and who commissioned a series of Sumak wool flat-weaves to be woven in Russian Azerbaijan according to the specifications of the antique originals.
This example shows a repeat pattern of a particular type of eight-pointed motif known as the Lesghi star, and connected to the Lesghi tribe located in nearby Russian Daghestan. Six polychrome Lesghi stars dominate a field embellished by a plethora of small geometric elements characteristic of the historical Caucasian textile art. The extremely fine quality of weaving attests to the huge commitment which was placed at the time towards the revival of this ancient weaving tradition.
