4'11 x 6'6 Hand-Knotted Caucasian Shirvan Area Rug

Item Details

An authentic late 19th-century Caucasian Shirvan rug featuring three interconnected hexagonal medallions. Hand-knotted with the symmetrical Ghiordes knot on a traditional wool foundation, this piece showcases the intricate geometric precision of Lesgie tribal weavers. The field is rendered in soft, naturally aged earth tones, including terracotta, apricot, and deep indigo, with motifs such as latch-hooks and stylized floral elements. A multi-banded border with geometric meanders frames the central field, making it a significant collector’s piece for traditional or eclectic interiors.
