About the Item

An exquisite antique Uzbek Bukhara rug from the 1920s, showcasing the refined elegance and precise craftsmanship of Central Asian tribal weaving. This hand-knotted wool piece features the iconic Bukhara design: five perfectly aligned octagonal guls (medallions) arranged vertically on a warm taupe field, each filled with intricate geometric patterns in crimson red and cream. The rug's sophisticated color palette combines soft earth tones with rich burgundy borders, creating a harmonious composition that has aged beautifully over the past century. The wide borders display classic Bukhara geometric motifs—repeating diamond patterns and stylized floral elements in deep red with cream and golden accents, all framed by multiple guard borders that add architectural structure to the design. In notably good condition for its age, this piece retains its pile integrity and vibrant natural dyes, making it a rare find among century-old textiles. The warm taupe field provides an elegant neutral backdrop that allows the crimson medallions to stand out dramatically, while the overall design maintains the balanced symmetry characteristic of fine Bukhara weaving. The compact size and well-preserved condition make this rug highly versatile—perfect as an accent piece, prayer rug, or collector's item. This piece represents the sophisticated weaving traditions of Uzbekistan's Bukhara region, where tribal artistry meets refined aesthetic sensibility.
