Karabagh Rug

1900 - 1920
Description

This is typical of a type of Karabagh produced for the European market. They are often bright, almost garish and sometimes deploy western design elements. I think this rug has a good balance of east and west with stylized boteh nestling in the diamonds over a formal striped field. I love rugs with depth and this is a great example.

The diamond medallions run down the centre while half diamonds float under the main border giving an impression of an infinite field. Even more impressive is the way the striped field flows under these diamonds, this is accentuated by the diamonds obscuring part of the stripe. Altogether a great and interesting piece with a strong presence.

Good condition with some well executed repairs in places. I believe the selvedges have been restored too. A very tidy piece which is ready to use.

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.

Karabagh rugs originate from the Southern Caucasus region, known historically for producing hand-woven textiles with bold geometric compositions and vibrant colour palettes influenced by Persian and regional tribal weaving traditions.

These textiles are typically hand-knotted using locally sourced hand-spun sheep wool for both the pile and the underlying warp and weft foundation, coloured with natural plant and mineral dyes.

Authenticity is indicated by hand-knotted construction visible on the reverse side, slight natural colour variations known as abrash, and traditional motifs such as repeated central diamond medallions surrounded by multi-band borders.

A geometric runner functions well in elongated architectural spaces such as entrance halls, corridors, or kitchen gallies, introducing linear structure, texture, and saturated accent colour to modern or traditional flooring.

Regular care involves gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush, placing a dense rug underlay beneath to prevent slippage and fibre wear, and addressing spills immediately with spot cleaning using pH-neutral wool detergents.
