Description from the seller

Shahsavan Antique Carpets – Timeless Elegance from the Caucasus

Kazak Antique Carpets originate from the southern Caucasus – a region that has been known for centuries for its rich carpet-weaving tradition. These characterful carpets are distinguished by bold colors, geometric patterns, and a robust knotting technique. Originally crafted by various ethnic groups such as Armenians, Azerbaijanis and Georgians, they reflect a fascinating blend of cultural influences.
Typical features of an antique Kazak carpet are:
• Bright natural colors such as red, blue, green and ivory
• Generous, geometric patterns, often with medallions, stars or cross motifs
• Hand-spun wool with a pleasantly soft handle
• Short, dense pile, ideal for heavily used living areas
Each Kazak carpet is a one-of-a-kind piece – knotted with artisanal precision and refined by the patina of time. It tells stories of nomadic life, craftsmanship and cultural identity. A genuine collector’s item that enriches modern as well as traditional interiors with a touch of history.

Name of the carpet: Antique Sumak
Manufacturing: Handwoven
Country of origin: Russia
