This Caucasian tribal area rug dates from around 1900 and is hand-knotted from wool. The piece displays a symmetrical field layout in rich red, cream, and brown, centred on a large diamond medallion flanked by stylised feather patterns, geometric border motifs, and scattered birds and animals. Signs of age include a low pile with light scattered wear, slightly distressed sections, stopped ends, and side cord wear along the edges. The rug measures 158 cm high by 126 cm wide and 0.5 cm deep. Suitable for use on the floor as an area rug in a living room, bedroom, or hallway, this textile brings traditional craftsmanship and pattern to an interior. The low pile allows it to sit comfortably under furniture or in transitional spaces, while the durable wool construction suits everyday placement in a home.

FAQs

Shirvan rugs originate from the southeastern Caucasus region, known for their hand-knotted wool construction and detailed geometric patterns. They typically feature central medallions, stylised motifs, and angular borders rendered in natural dyes.

These textiles are traditionally hand-knotted using locally sourced wool for both the pile and the foundation structure. Weaver artisans employed symmetrical Turkish knots, resulting in a low, dense pile with clear design definition.

Authentic regional pieces demonstrate subtle hand-spun yarn variations known as abrash, wool foundation threads, and slight geometric asymmetry inherent to tribal looms. Natural dyes age to muted shades, and the reverse side displays clear, visible hand-knotting structure.

A handwoven geometric rug provides architectural structure and visual warmth when placed on timber or polished concrete flooring. Contrast the bold linear motifs against clean-lined modern furniture, contemporary art, or a minimalist architectural backdrop.

Vacuum regularly using a suction-only setting without a rotating beater bar to prevent fibre damage. Rotate the piece annually to balance foot traffic and light exposure, and rely on professional hand-washing specialists for deep cleaning.
