Description

Woven in Armenia near the border with Azerbaidjan these bold, colourful rugs are very popular. The exploding medallions, often referred to as either 'Sunburst' or 'Eagles, are graphic, dynamic and exciting. This beautiful example has the blood red field needed to perfectly set off the animated medallions and contrast with greens, yellows and blue tones. Finely woven and an early piece- late 19th century- it would be very expensive in original condition but has sadly some inexpert repairs which brings the value down. Still very much useable for the floor or could be a great display piece.

4'3" x 6'6"

Date of Manufacture

James Cohen Antique Carpets has dated this Antique Eagle Kazak Rug to the 1880s.

Eagle Kazak rugs are distinctive antique Caucasian carpets traditionally woven in the southern Caucasus region during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. They are characterised by large, stylised medallions that collectors and experts traditionally interpret as stylised eagle motifs, flanked by hooked geometry.

Authentic pieces are hand-knotted using handspun wool for both the pile and the foundation, often featuring wool or occasionally cotton warps and wefts. Natural dyes derived from plants, insects, and minerals provide the rich palette of reds, blues, yellows, and ivories.

Authentication involves examining the knot density, irregularities in the handspun wool, abrash (natural colour variations in the dye), and the structure of the fringe and selvedges. Genuine older examples display subtle asymmetries inherent to tribal village production rather than mass-machined uniformity.

These textiles add warmth, texture, and historical contrast to contemporary or minimalist spaces. They function effectively as anchor pieces in living rooms, studies, or hallways, pairing well with neutral upholstery and natural wood finishes.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional specialist cleaning when necessary, and rotation every six months to ensure even wear. Placing a breathable, non-slip underlay beneath the rug prevents sliding and protects the foundation fibres.
