About the Item
The Shahsavan confederation of tribes is known especially for their flat-woven containers and trappings, which they wove entirely for their own use during the nomadic encampments. Their pile knotted rugs are quite rare, and feature motifs borrowed either from their own flat-weave iconography or from the neighbouring Caucasian village rug tradition.
This charming and pristine example shows an open field characterised by many different gradations of indigo blue. This is sparingly embellished by well-spaced three rows of three small paisleys, and is framed by an ivory border containing a geometric meander element which also appears on a group of their sumak-woven tent bags.
