About the Item
A superb late 19th century Shirvan Caucasian rug, circa 1880s, measuring approximately 122 inches by 54 inches (10 ft 2 in x 4 ft 6 in). This finely woven piece exemplifies the refined craftsmanship and balanced design for which Shirvan rugs are celebrated.
The rug features a striking series of linked diamond medallions running down the central field, each filled with intricate geometric motifs and surrounded by smaller tribal rosettes and talismanic symbols. The rich indigo-blue background is beautifully contrasted with warm tones of brick red, ivory, gold, and soft green, creating a visually dynamic yet harmonious composition.
Framed by a traditional multi-band border with star and cross motifs, the rug displays both precision and character typical of Shirvan weavers from the eastern Caucasus region. The wool is of high quality with a fine knot count, and the colors remain vibrant with natural vegetable dyes.
Overall condition is very good for its age, with expected light wear consistent with late 19th century craftsmanship. This is an outstanding example of a true Shirvan collector’s rug—elegant, balanced, and full of regional charm—perfect for connoisseurs of antique Caucasian textiles or as a distinguished decorative piece in any setting.
