Shirvan rugs are hand-knotted carpets traditionally produced in the Shirvan region of the eastern Caucasus, known for their precise geometric designs and saturated natural colour palettes.

These rugs are constructed with hand-spun wool foundations and pile, traditionally dyed using natural vegetable and insect dyes, and secured with symmetrical or asymmetrical knots.

Authentic pieces exhibit irregularities in weave and design, natural abrash colour variations, hand-spun wool with a characteristic lustre, and traditional Caucasian geometric motifs such as hooked diamonds and star polygons.

An antique tribal rug functions as a focal point in a contemporary setting, pairing effectively with minimalist furnishings, neutral hardwood floors, and clean architectural lines to create visual warmth and contrast.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional hand-washing by specialists in antique textiles, and protection from prolonged direct sunlight to prevent dye fading.
