Description

Karabagh is a famous district in the Armenian Caucasus which has a rich tradition of carpet weaving. Occupied by the Persians for centuries, and then later in the 19th century by Russia, the carpets woven in Karabagh reveal the different influences upon the weavers from local wealthy clientele, as well as their indigenous weaving traditions . This carpet is one of a well known group of Karabagh carpets that may have first appeared in the 18th century or earlier. It is a stunningly beautiful carpet with repeating blossoms within a lattice design floating on a white background and framed by an elegant meandering vine border. The carpet has been reduced in size but retains it's splendour! Thin and fine, it folds like paper. A carpet for the connoisseur!

FAQs

Preservation involves regular gentle vacuuming without a beater bar, professional specialist cleaning when necessary, and avoiding direct, prolonged exposure to harsh sunlight to protect the natural wool fibres and dyes.

An antique rug can be used as a grounding element in a modern living space or hallway, pairing its rich texture and historical pattern with clean-lined contemporary furniture to create visual balance.

Authentic pieces feature organic irregularities in the weave and pattern, traditional symmetrical or asymmetrical knots, natural dye variations, and authentic wear patterns consistent with age and hand-use.

These carpets are traditionally hand-knotted using handspun wool for the pile, warp, and weft, often utilizing natural vegetable dyes derived from plants, roots, and insects to achieve rich, lasting colours.

A Karabagh kellei is a traditional long-format carpet woven in the Karabagh region of the Caucasus during the 19th century, known for its distinctive blend of regional tribal designs and European floral influences.
