Zeikur Rug Animal Figures

About the Item

This antique Zeikhur rug, hand-knotted around 1880 in the Caucasus, is a striking testament to traditional craftsmanship and cultural legacy. Measuring 186 × 120 cm, this rug is woven entirely from fine wool, including both the pile and the foundational structure (warp and weft). The choice of high-quality wool lends the rug a rich texture and a subtle sheen, enhancing its luxurious appeal. The rug’s design is distinctively Caucasian, with a vibrant array of motifs crafted into its field. Bold, deep blues serve as the backdrop for an intricate pattern of florals, medallions, and stylized elements that suggest a narrative or symbolic significance, typical of the finest Zeikhur rugs. This piece is adorned with striking color contrasts—multicolored elements of red, orange, and ivory pop against the dark field, creating a mesmerizing visual rhythm that commands attention. The harmonious yet special border frames the composition perfectly, showcasing the detailed artistry and disciplined geometry characteristic of Caucasian weaving traditions. In a very condition condition considering the age, this rug has been gently used, with only the lightest of wear that speaks to its age without detracting from its beauty. The edges and fringes have been expertly secured, preserving the rug’s integrity and ensuring it remains a cherished piece for years to come. Thoroughly cleaned and carefully restored by professionals, this rug is ready to grace a new space, bringing with it the timeless charm and elegance of 19th-century Caucasian artistry. Whether displayed as a focal point in a living space or treasured as part of a collection, this Zeikhur rug adds a touch of history, sophistication, and warmth to any environment.
