This antique tribal Caucasian rug brings together the artistry and resourcefulness of nomadic weavers from the Caucasus mountains at the turn of the 20th century. Handwoven with vegetable dyed wool, it carries a natural depth of color that has softened into a nicely aged palette over more than a hundred years.
The rug features a striking lattice design, filled with motifs that alternate in color combinations, giving the field a lively rhythm. Set against a rare charcoal ground, the patterns feel both structured and full of movement. The border adds its own distinct personality with a bold floral chain running along a brick red band, neatly framing the central design while giving the piece balance and character.
Though it has seen a century of life, the rug remains in good condition with expected wear that only adds to its authenticity and charm. The mix of rare ground color, playful yet organized design, and enduring craftsmanship makes this rug stand out as a unique work from a fascinating weaving tradition.
