About the Item

This 19th-century Caucasian Kassim Ushak rug represents one of the most distinctive expressions of tribal weaving from the region. Characterised by its three aligned medallions set against an ivory field, the composition balances clarity, geometry, and symbolic depth—hallmarks of the Kassim Ushak tradition. The medallions are articulated with stylised floral and leaf motifs, arranged in deliberate symmetry that reflects long-standing Caucasian iconographic conventions. Surrounding the central design, the borders combine crimson, indigo, and soft pastel tones, enriched with hooked forms and protective symbols that lend the piece its rhythmic visual structure. Woven with natural-dye wool, the rug presents a palette that has matured beautifully over time while maintaining strong saturation and harmony. Its preserved pile and original fringes underscore the quality of its materials and craftsmanship. For collectors and designers, this Kassim Ushak rug offers both historical significance and a versatile graphic presence, making it suitable as a focal floor piece or as a mounted textile for architectural display.
