This antique Caucasian Kazak hallway rug is a striking example of tribal craftsmanship from the southern Caucasus, dating back to the late 19th or early 20th century. Woven in a long, narrow format ideal for corridors or gallery spaces, the rug features a series of large, stepped diamond medallions aligned vertically along a warm, golden ochre field.
Each medallion is intricately detailed with angular motifs, crosses, and small rosettes, framed within a bold, linear structure that creates rhythm and continuity. The surrounding field is lightly decorated, allowing the geometric forms to stand out clearly, a hallmark of Kazak design. Soft shades of rust, ivory, salmon, and muted plum bring depth to the warm-toned base.
Framing the field is a robust border ensemble: the main border is filled with repeating hooked rosettes in red, cream, and gold, flanked by narrow guard bands featuring checkered and diamond motifs, which lend structure and visual complexity.
Hand-knotted in coarse, lustrous wool with natural dyes, this Kazak rug combines bold tribal symbolism with earthy harmony. Its worn patina and confident geometry make it a timeless piece ideal for rustic, bohemian, or eclectic interiors seeking authenticity and visual impact.
