Antique Caucasian Surakhani

19th century
For Sale by Siez Gallery
Description

Most Surakhani rugs consist of three central medallions, so the fact that this rug has ten is quite unusual. Decorative flowers adorn the inside of these octagons, whilst a set of latch hooked diamonds ensure the piece maintains a balance and symmetry. Vivid colours really enhance the feel of this lovely piece. The ivory border is the perfect backdrop for the linked crab design. Obvious condition issues but still a desirable standout rug.

Size: 205cm x 138cm

Age: Mid 19th Century

Condition: All over wear - ok

Stock No: SG-SUR0624

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.

A Caucasian Surakhani rug is a hand-knotted textile produced in the eastern Caucasus region, particularly associated with weaving villages near Baku. These rugs are recognised for their structured layouts, geometric medallions, and deeply saturated natural dyes.

Caucasian rugs are constructed using hand-spun wool for both the pile and the foundation structure. The wool is dyed using natural plant and mineral sources, such as madder root for reds and indigo for blues.

Authentic pieces exhibit hand-knotted construction with minor variations in symmetry and knotting tension. The reverse side clearly displays the pattern structure, while the colour palette reflects age-appropriate mellowing of natural dyes rather than synthetic fading.

Geometric tribal rugs serve as an ideal anchor for neutral interior schemes, providing pattern contrast alongside leather, dark wood, or minimalist modern furniture. Layering the rug over larger plain natural fibre carpets can also define specific seating or dining zones.

Regular gentle vacuuming without a rotating brush bar removes surface dust without damaging the wool fibres. Prompt spot cleaning with cool water and neutral detergent, alongside professional specialist cleaning every few years, maintains the rug condition.
