AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Antique Caucasian Shirvan rug (c. 1880–1900) – hand-knotted – 120 × 93 cm
Authentic Caucasian Shirvan village carpet, hand-knotted around 1880–1900, originating from the Shirvan region.
This type of carpet is known for its graphic geometry, refined medallions, and strong tribal character.
The soft beige ground combined with antique pink and earth tones gives it a warm, well-worn appearance.
The rug is entirely handmade, displaying the characteristic vertical row of medallions with surrounding symbolic motifs that are so typical of Shirvan weavings.
The colors have developed a beautiful patina over more than a century, giving this piece extra character.
There are signs of wear consistent with its age: light wear to the pile, edge aging, and small irregularities in the weave.
These are honest traces of everyday use and contribute to the rug's authenticity and charm.
Not a modern reproduction, but an original antique village weave.
Size: approx. 120 × 93 cm — ideal as an accent rug in a hallway, bedroom, reading nook or as a decorative piece in a boho, vintage or eclectic interior.
A beautiful collectible piece for lovers of Caucasian carpets and authentic handcraft from the late 19th century.
