Shirvan rugs are hand-knotted oriental carpets produced in the Eastern Caucasus region, known for their precise geometric motifs, fine knotting, and balanced layouts.

These rugs are traditionally hand-knotted using wool for both the pile and the foundation (warp and weft), dyed with natural vegetable and insect-derived colorants.

Authenticity is determined by examining the irregularity of hand-spun wool, natural colour variations known as abrash, specific structural knot counts, and traditional regional motifs.

An antique tribal rug functions as a piece of floor art, adding texture and historical contrast when paired with clean-lined contemporary furniture or neutral minimalist backdrops.

Preservation requires gentle, regular vacuuming without beater bars, professional hand-washing by specialists in antique textiles, and avoiding prolonged exposure to direct sunlight.
