Antique Caucasian Caucasian Knotted Hallway Runner Rug, Circa Date: 1880s. This exceptional late 19th-century weaving originates from the Moghan region of the Caucasus, embodying the robust, tribal aesthetic prized by collectors of antique rugs. The Moghan are renowned for their intricate, highly saturated dye work and durable construction, making this piece a superb example of nomadic artistry. The primary field color is a luminous, aged yellow, achieved through natural dyes that have mellowed beautifully over time, providing a striking contrast to the deep indigo and madder reds used in the minor motifs. The field features a dense, repeating stylized boteh or diamond pattern, executed in a precise, rhythmic allover design that fills the narrow format with visual energy.
