About the Item

This antique Transcaucasian rug features a dynamic shield medallion design in a rich blend of crimson, indigo, ivory, and ochre tones. The field is energized by a bold arrangement of geometric medallions and stylized elements, evoking tribal iconography native to the Caucasus region. Surrounding the central motifs, stepped diamonds and hooked rosettes interlock in rhythmic harmony. The multiple borders incorporate a zigzag lattice, abstract blossoms, and a striking carnation guard, all executed with crisp definition and saturated dyes. The wool retains a soft, luminous finish, complemented by visible age and cultural authenticity. This piece brings bold character and ethnographic appeal to any collection or curated space.
