Ararat Rugs Derbend Kazak Rug, 19th C. Caucasian Revival Carpet Natural Dyed
Located in Tokyo, JP
This is a Derbend Kazak rug also known as Daghestan rug, designed late 19th century, is a type of handwoven rug that originates from the Caucasus region, specifically from the town of Derbend (also spelled as Derbent) in modern-day Dagestan, Russia. Derbend rugs have a rich history that dates back centuries and are highly regarded for their intricate designs and craftsmanship. Derbend rugs are known for their bold and vibrant geometric designs. They often feature intricate patterns and motifs such as diamonds, medallions, stars, and stylized floral elements. The designs are typically woven with high contrast, using a variety of colors, including red, blue, green, and ivory. Derbend rugs have been woven by various ethnic groups in the Caucasus region, including the Azerbaijani, Lezgian, and Avar peoples. They hold cultural and historical importance as a form of artistic expression and are considered a part of the region's rich weaving heritage. The design of this rug is interpreted by our designers and soft colors are chosen for this rug. Color summary: 7 colors in total; Turquoise 330 (Spurge - Madder Root - Indigo - Walnut Husk) Dark Brown 316 (No Dye - Sheep’s Own Color) Barley Corn 103 (Only Specially Washed) Mandarian Orange 529 (Madder Root - Walnut Hulsk) Wax Flower...

Kuba Mask African Bwoom Tribal Congo in Wood, Vibrates Vegetables, Animal Hair
Located in Milano, IT
The African Kuba Bwoom tribal mask is the oldest known mask, the Kuba bwoom mask. The materials used for the realization of the Mask are: Wood, colors and vibrates plants, caures, beads, animal hair. In dance it expresses exuberance and joy. The style is similar to that of the middle Kasai. This mask is a helmet with animal hair, carved with a very wide forehead and hollow cheeks that are announced by motifs or dashes and beads. The mouth of the mask is very pronounced carved in wood and then applied on the mask. To distinguish the forehead in different areas are used black and white beads to draw attention to other aspects of the face such as the nose and chin. The entire edge of the chin is surrounded by beads of various colors. The person wearing the mask cannot look because there are no holes for the eyes present; the mask must create the feeling of being blind. Some masks similar to the bwoom mask include the funny mask, the ram mask and initiation masks such as Nnup. The real Kuba masks...
