Antique Caucasian Kazak Long Rug Multi Geometric, Rose Pink Border, Circa 1890

A late 19th-century Caucasian Kazak long scatter rug woven around 1890, measuring approximately 121.9 × 243.9 cm (about 4'0" × 8'2"). The composition is a multi-color geometric design framed by a rose-pink border — an unusual border color for a Kazak of this era and one of the details that makes this particular piece a strong example for rooms where the rug is meant to do real visual work. Kazak rugs come from the southwestern Caucasus and were woven by village and tribal weavers using bold, large-scale geometric vocabularies. They are among the most actively collected and most decoratively used antique Caucasian carpets in Western interiors. Hand-knotted wool. Authentic one-of-a-kind antique.
