Carabagh - Carpet - 150 cm - 91 cm

Beautiful antique Armenian/Karabagh rug (ca. 1880–1900), 150 × 91 cm

This expressive and rare Caucasian carpet was woven around the end of the 19th century in the Karabagh/Armenia region. The piece immediately stands out due to its wide bird border, a beloved motif in Armenian weaving traditions, and the use of natural dyes in warm red, green, and blue shades.

The central field is richly filled with geometric flowers, medallions, and traditional symbols such as solar wheels and good luck signs—elements typical of carpets from Alexandropol and Shushi. The gentle wear in the middle and the restored sides testify to the age and give the carpet an authentic, decorative character.

With its vibrant colors and refined patterns, this is a charming and historically valuable example of 19th-century Armenian craftsmanship, perfect for collectors and enthusiasts of antique Caucasian rugs.
