Caucasian / 18787

This Caucasian antique rug measures 226 x 328 cm and unfolds with a dense field of geometric floral motifs set against a deep navy ground. Rose, ivory, coral, rust, and plum tones move through the design in layered bands, while serrated borders and narrow guard borders bring definition to the composition. Wool gives the surface a tactile, softly aged presence, and the low distress keeps the drawing legible. Circa 1880 - 1900, it reflects the expressive colour and ornament associated with Caucasian weaving, with a composed, heritage-rich character that feels quietly worn and visually exacting.
