Caucasian / 18781

This Caucasian antique rug, measuring 269 x 356 cm, is worked in wool with a layered palette of blue, ivory, cream, and neutral tones. The field is organised around an all-over diamond lattice, each unit holding a small geometric core, while the border adds narrow bands of motif and contrast. Medium distress is visible in the softened colour, patchy fading, and gentle wear across the surface. Circa 1900 - 1920, it has the grounded, timeworn character and clear structure that define a compelling Caucasian rug. The softened surface retains a quiet, tactile character shaped by time.
