Antique Caucasian Kazak Rug / Small Carpet, Gendje Region, Unusual Design, Circa 1900.

1900 - 1920
Description

Size: 10ft 4in x 5ft 10in (316 x 179cm).

Antique Caucasian Kazak rug or small carpet, with repeat octogen medallion design.

Circa 1900.

An interesting and scarce Kazak rug, a related example is published in 'Oriental Rugs Vol 1 Caucasian' by Ian Bennett, page 141, plate 154. Bennett suggests that whilst the Gendje region is the most likely origin, it is possible that the rugs could be from the Karabagh region, due to design elements that are related to Chelaberd 'eagle' kayak rugs.

The example offered here has three vertical rows of seven linked octogens, on a dark indigo blue ground. The border design is also associated with rugs from Gendje. This is a striking large size furnishing rug, that will make a statement wherever it is used.

The rug is in excellent condition with very slight even wear and good pile.

The rug is suitable for normal domestic use.

The rug has been hand washed and is ready for use or display.

Stock Number: R-2665.

Archival Detail
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.

Hailing from the Caucasus region in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, these hand-knotted rugs are characterised by their bold geometric patterns, natural dyes, and distinct tribal motifs often featuring repeating octagons or hexagonal medallions.

Traditional Caucasian carpets are constructed using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation, utilizing hand-tied symmetrical knots that create a durable weave dyed with plant-based pigments.

Authentic pieces exhibit natural colour variations known as abrash, a soft wool foundation with minor structural irregularities from hand-loom weaving, and clear geometric design execution with vegetable-dyed yarn.

Place a geometric Caucasian rug against neutral flooring or timber boards to anchor a living space, layering it beneath contemporary leather or velvet furniture to create textural contrast.

Vacuum gently using a suction-only setting to avoid damaging the pile, rotate the carpet annually to ensure even wear and light exposure, and rely on professional specialist rug cleaners for deep washing.
