Antique Caucasian - Hallway Runner Wool Blue Rug, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional piece is a superb example of late 19th-century weaving from the Caucasus region. The Zeichur designation refers to a specific type of geometric precision and robust structure, characteristic of the finest antique rugs produced during this period of high demand for tribal artistry. The field is dominated by a rich, saturated indigo, a testament to the masterful use of natural dyes prevalent in the 1880s. This deep blue color provides a dramatic backdrop for the secondary palette of rust, terracotta, and ivory accents, creating a vibrant yet balanced composition that speaks to the weaver's sophisticated eye for contrast and depth. The design features a highly stylized repetition of large, star-like medallions and complex geometric motifs.
