A 19th-century Caucasian Kazak rug from around 1890, measuring approximately 91.4 × 182.9 cm (3’0″ × 6’0″). The composition is built on a saturated red field with red-toned border — a bold all-red color register that is characteristic of certain Kazak village traditions and gives the rug a strong, unified visual presence at this size.
Kazak rugs come from the southern Caucasus region and were woven by village and tribal weavers in wool, working from large-scale geometric vocabularies that have remained one of the most identifiable formats of antique tribal carpet in the Western collecting market.
Hand-knotted wool. Authentic one-of-a-kind antique.
