Antique Caucasian Caucasus - Kuba Blue 1880s Rug, Country of Origin: Kuba, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional piece exemplifies the finest weaving traditions of the Eastern Caucasus, showcasing the sophisticated geometric precision for which Kuba weavers were renowned. The dense knotting and robust handle are characteristic of the region's output during this highly prized period of production. The striking contrast between the deep indigo field and the vibrant madder red secondary motifs is characteristic of 19th-century Caucasian dyes. This intensity of hue, achieved through saturated, natural colorants, makes it a compelling example among blue color rugs, offering a dramatic visual foundation for any discerning interior space. The intricate field design features a tightly organized series of powerful, stepped octagons and geometric motifs.
