About the Item

This early 20th century Caucasian Kuba rug, measuring 3' 5" x 5' 6", features a bold and dynamic composition emblematic of the Kuba weaving tradition. Set against a deep indigo field, the design is structured around an alternating lattice of abstracted S-shaped motifs and latch-hook medallions, each enclosing geometric stylized animal figures and rosettes. The polychrome palette rich in crimson, ivory, saffron, sky blue, and forest green creates a rhythmic visual texture that speaks to the region’s masterful use of color and balance. The main border is composed of angular star motifs, known as the “crab” design, rendered in alternating tones across an ivory ground. Inner and outer guard borders feature meandering hooked scrolls, adding further depth and movement to the overall layout. Woven by tribal artisans, this rug exemplifies the precision, vibrancy, and symbolic depth of antique Kuba pieces, making it a striking decorative artifact and a treasured piece of textile heritage.
