Hand-Knotted Caucasian Wool Area Rug
Item Details
A hand-knotted Caucasian wool area rug. This wool rug is rendered in a palette of camel, deep midnight blue, azure and blush. It begins with a serrated diamond medallion filled with herati-arranged stylized lancet leaves, bird figures and florals over midnight blue. Anchored by successive pendants at top and bottom, the medallion rests on a camel field populated with occasional floral, foliate and abstract motifs. The field is framed by compound borders, including a stripped-down herati main border featuring stylized palmettes over an abrashed grounding of blush. Selvedges are double overcast, the rug finishing at each end with tan cotton warp fringe. It is unlabeled.
