Description

What an amazing rug!

Very finely knotted with a red ground containg the typical Perepidal stylised winged birds and dragons which, I suspect, represents the symbolic 'dragon & phoenix' - the fight between good and evil!

Note also, the beautiful shade of green in the main border?

Rugs like this are rare in today's world market-place and this rug, made circa 1870-1880 is in very good condition with just a minor shade of wear.

Size: 1.70m x 1.30m (5' 7" x 4' 3").

FAQs

Perepedil rugs originate from the Eastern Caucasus region and are traditionally characterised by distinctive geometric motifs, including the signature rams horn or kufic borders and vertical latch-hook designs.

Authentic pieces are hand-knotted using handspun wool for the pile, warp, and weft, utilising traditional symmetrical or asymmetrical knots dyed with natural vegetable colorants.

Authenticity is determined by examining the irregularities in the weave, natural abrash colour variations in the wool, structural rigidity, and the use of authentic organic dyestuffs typical of the region.

Such carpets function as focal floor art in minimalist or eclectic spaces, grounding neutral furniture arrangements with rich texture, historical depth, and saturated traditional colour palettes.

Preservation requires regular gentle vacuuming without rotary brushes, professional organic washing when necessary, and the use of a breathable rug pad out of direct sunlight.
