Antique Caucasian - Karabagh Caucasian 1890s Rug, Country of Origin: Caucasus, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of Caucasian rugs originates from the southern region of the Caucasus Mountains, specifically representing the distinctive style of karabagh production. Its deep, saturated palette and tightly woven structure immediately establish its authenticity as a late 19th-century tribal weaving. The central field is dominated by a highly stylized boteh (or paisley) motif, rendered in alternating hues of madder red and deep indigo against a rich, near-black ground. This dense repetition creates a powerful visual texture, characteristic of allover rugs where the design flows seamlessly across the entire plane, uninterrupted by a central medallion.
