About the Item

Early 20th Century hand knotted Caucasian Karabagh wide runner in a geometric pattern. Runners from the Karabagh region of the Caucasus are known for their distinctive designs, and this piece stands out with its incredibly rare and highly desirable color palette. This beautiful Karabagh runner features a dynamic geometric design characterized by a series of striking medallions that grace its field. What makes this rug truly unique is its stunning background color: a vibrant and beautiful magenta or deep crimson, a highly unusual and sought-after hue for rugs of this origin. The medallions themselves are rendered in harmonious contrasts of deep blue and warm brown-orange colors, creating a visually arresting focal point. Adding to its distinctive charm and narrative, the field is subtly interspersed with delightful small human forms, which imbue this runner with a playful spirit and a deeper connection to its village origins, making it truly unique. The main design is elegantly framed by a deep dark blue border, which is beautifully adorned with a continuous paisley chain pattern, further enhanced by other complementary colors woven throughout. This intricate border provides a sophisticated contrast and completes the rug's cohesive and powerful aesthetic.

Antique Karabagh Gallery Rug, Hand-Knotted Wool, Geometric, 1880s, 7' x 14'

Antique Karabagh Gallery Rug, Hand-Knotted Wool, Geometric, 1880s, 7' x 14'

Located in Barrington, IL

This striking late 19th century Caucasian Karabagh gallery rug, woven in the final quarter of the 1800s, exemplifies the bold geometry, vivid colorwork, and commanding presence for which Karabagh rugs are revered. Designed in an elongated corridor format, this rare gallery rug was traditionally created for grand estates and stately interiors. The expansive abrash navy and French blue field is energized by an elegant allover geometric pattern, featuring a harmonious palette of sapphire blue, emerald green, brick red, warm brown, soft pink, and golden yellow. The skillful use of abrash creates subtle movement across the surface, enhancing its visual depth and antique character. Framing the composition is a richly saturated chocolate brown primary border, adorned with crisply articulated geometric motifs in red, blue, yellow, and green, offering dramatic contrast and architectural balance. The result is a rug that conveys both ornament and power, reflecting the prestige of the great estates and formal corridors for which these gallery rugs were originally commissioned.
