This antique rug, originating from the Caucasus region around 1900, features the traditional Kazak design and tribal styles. The rug's primary color is a deep red, which serves as the background, complemented by a green border. Both the field and the border consist of intricate geometric patterns and motifs typical of Kazak craftsmanship.
Handwoven with wool on a wool foundation, the rug exemplifies the durability and quality associated with traditional Kazak weaving techniques. The use of vegetable dyes contributes to the vibrancy and longevity of the colors, offering a rich palette that includes shades of red, blue, green, white, cream, dark brown, and traces of yellow.
The rug features three large, vertically aligned octagonal medallions. Each medallion is outlined with contrasting colors, enhancing its visibility against the red background. The top and bottom medallions are primarily blue with red, green, and white accents, whereas the middle medallion is mainly green with accents of red, blue, and white. These medallions are filled with angular motifs and geometric shapes, some of which abstractly represent animals or symbolic figures.
The main border of the rug is adorned with a repeating pattern of star-like motifs set against a cream background, predominantly in shades of red, blue, and white. This is flanked by secondary borders that feature smaller geometric shapes and linear designs, creating a layered and intricate visual effect.
The overall design displays a high degree of symmetry, showcasing the skilled craftsmanship of the weaver. This piece not only serves as a decorative item but also encapsulates a slice of Caucasian history and artisanal tradition, reflected in its detailed patterns and robust construction.
