About the Item

Antique Karabagh Botanic Brown, Beige Handmade Wool Rug Size: 6'8" × 12'9" (203 × 388 cm) This antique Russian Karabagh rug from the Caucasus, dating back to circa 1920, presents a refined example of the region’s mastery in geometric design and subdued elegance. Woven in a restrained palette of camel, beige, and warm walnut browns, the piece showcases a rare monochromatic aesthetic that departs from the more florid palettes typical of Karabagh weavings. This creates a sophisticated and contemporary appeal while retaining historical authenticity. The field features a finely structured, repeating lattice of stylized botanical motifs, arranged in a balanced and symmetrical configuration that reads as both organic and architectural. The precision of the patterning suggests influence from Persian workshop designs, interpreted through the more angular, tribal sensibility of the Caucasus. The rug’s muted tones result from expertly aged natural dyes, which have softened over time to a mellow, harmonious finish. Framing the composition is a series of narrow inner stripes leading into a broader border of rosette-like medallions and angular vines, lending depth and definition without overwhelming the field. Despite its age, the rug retains strong compositional clarity and displays its wear with grace, enhancing its character rather than detracting from it. Woven with wool on a wool foundation, the rug speaks to both the durability and craftsmanship of its origin. Its subdued palette and all-over pattern make it a versatile piece—equally suited for grounding a modern minimalist space as for complementing a traditional setting. Rich in heritage and artistry, this handmade rug exemplifies the high standards of Doris Leslie Blau’s curated pieces. With a wide range of prices, Doris Leslie Blau makes exceptional rugs accessible to collectors and designers alike.
