About the Item

Period: Late 19th century Origin: Talish, South Caucaus Dimensions: 127×226 cm This elegant Talish rug, woven in the late 19th century in the southern Caucasus, exemplifies the refined minimalism and geometric precision characteristic of the Talish weaving tradition. Talish rugs are renowned for their striking simplicity—often featuring a spacious, monochromatic central field framed by richly ornamented borders—and this piece is a perfect representation of that aesthetic balance. The field displays a deep, saturated madder red tone, contrasted by a narrow inner band of stepped black motifs that create a subtle rhythmic motion across the vertical axis. Surrounding this is a series of multiple guard stripes and borders, each filled with geometric symbols, stylized diamonds, and hooked “S” motifs—forms that reflect ancient Caucasian symbolism representing protection and continuity. The outermost border, rendered in vivid shades of green, blue, yellow, and red, features a continuous pattern of abstract bird or ram’s horn motifs—traditional emblems of strength, vitality, and tribal heritage. The interplay between these bold colors and the unadorned central field gives the rug a timeless visual power. Woven with hand-spun wool and dyed with natural pigments, this Talish rug embodies both the technical mastery and artistic restraint of late 19th-century Caucasian tribal weaving. Its bold geometry and radiant palette make it a classic and highly desirable example of Talish craftsmanship.

Antique Talish Rug, 19th Century
Located in San Francisco, CA
Antique Caucasian Talish Rug, 19th Century The Talish, or Talysh, are an ethnic Iranian minority traditionally inhabiting the border region of Azerbaijan straddling Northwest Persia and the South Caucasus. While the vast majority of Talish pieces are thought to have been woven in the southeast Caucasus, there seems to be some diversity of weave within the group; a few seemingly early Talish design pieces have even been ascribed to weaving centers in neighboring Anatolia. This Talish rug, while using the eponymous rosette border and long and narrow format, is quite different than most of the type. A madder red main border is flanked by colorful blue and green guards...
