Antique East Azerbaijan Carpet

19th century
Description

This is an attractive handwoven antique carpet with a nice country house look dating from around 1890. The carpet has a most appealing colour palette and just the right amount of wear to it. The typical Afshar design has a large ivory central medallion enclosed by colourful geometric motifs in teal blue, royal blue and raspberry, and enclosed by pretty multiple borders. The carpet has overall wear which has subtly softened the colour palette over time

In ready to use condition with good ends and selvedges the carpet measures 196 cms by 153 cms.

Every single antique dealer on our platform is individually approved by our internal team. We verify their professional trade history, ethical standards, and photographic quality to ensure a secure, high-standard buying environment. Upon joining, every dealer agrees to a strict 9-point code of conduct. While issues can occasionally arise, our dealers typically resolve them swiftly and directly with the buyer. In fact, since our founding in 2002, Sellingantiques has only had to step in to help resolve an issue on roughly five occasions—a true testament to the quality of our dealers and their dedication to your happiness.
Our dealers are highly experienced in packing and shipping fragile, high-value antiques. Because you are in direct contact with the dealer, you will be able to easily go through all available shipping and insurance options together to ensure your item arrives safely.
Antiques are the ultimate green purchase. By choosing historical pieces over newly manufactured goods, you completely eliminate the carbon footprint of modern mass production while preserving exceptional, timeless craftsmanship.

East Azerbaijan carpets, produced in northwestern Iran, are characterised by geometric medallion compositions, angular palmettes, and durable hand-knotted construction using regional wool.

These carpets are constructed with hand-spun wool pile woven onto a durable cotton or wool warp and weft foundation, often using plant-based and mineral dyes.

Authentic pieces exhibit irregular hand-knotted symmetry, subtle colour variations known as abrash, and a dense, heavy structure with visible warp threads along the fringes.

Traditional medallion carpets serve as anchor elements on neutral timber or stone flooring, creating visual contrast beneath contemporary minimalist furniture.

Maintain wool carpets through regular low-suction vacuuming, prompt spot cleaning with neutral detergent, and periodic rotation to ensure even wear.
