Woven in the third quarter of the 19th century, this antique Caucasian rug comes straight from the high mountain weaving traditions where symbolism, geometry, and durability mattered as much as beauty. The field is anchored by a bold, graphic medallion surrounded by powerful tribal motifs…each element placed with intention rather than perfection, which is exactly what gives this piece its soul.
What really sets this rug apart is the color story. Soft lilac and faint eggplant tones weave through warm earth hues, indigo blues, and muted lime green…a palette that feels quietly complex and incredibly hard to come by. These are true vegetable dyes that have softened and settled over time, creating that mellow, slightly dusty patina collectors love.
Handwoven entirely from 100% wool, pile and foundation alike. The pile is low and worn in all the right ways, giving it a beautiful, floppy handle that only comes from age and honest use. This is a rug that feels relaxed, grounded, and deeply authentic.
A soulful, small scale piece with big presence…perfect for layering, at the entry, next to your bed, or anywhere you want real history underfoot.
