A splendid Caucasian Karakashly rug, renowned for its striking graphic presence and superb tribal craftsmanship.

At its core, the rug features a vertical row of three bold square medallions, each adorned with eight-petalled rosettes in rich red, blue, and ivory tones. The deep indigo-black field is alive with angular, geometric vinework, stylised rams' horns, and symbolic motifs, creating a dynamic contrast and sense of movement. Surrounding this energetic centre, the borders are layered with a classic star-and-rosette pattern on an ivory ground, framed by narrower guard borders with floral and zigzag details that echo the lively spirit of the field.

Woven in the Karabagh region, this rug is prized for its high-quality wool, saturated natural dyes, and sharp, crisp weaving. It is a true expression of Caucasian tribal artistry, offering both bold decorative appeal and cultural richness.
