This vintage Turkish Shirvan rug showcases a classic design known for its intricate geometric patterns and refined craftsmanship, typical of the Shirvan weaving tradition from the Caucasus region.
The rug's field is dominated by three prominent octagonal medallions aligned vertically, each featuring detailed inner motifs in soft pastel hues including blues, pinks, and creams. These medallions are framed by smaller geometric shapes and stylized motifs, arranged with meticulous symmetry.
Surrounding the central field, the borders present a series of floral and vine patterns, rendered in warm earthy tones like brown, beige, and muted terracotta, adding depth and contrast. The outermost border displays a repeating sequence of stylized blossoms, contributing to the rug’s harmonious and balanced aesthetic.
Crafted with fine wool and natural dyes, this piece exemplifies the durability and timeless beauty of traditional Shirvan rugs. The overall color palette is gentle yet vibrant, with an aged patina that enhances its vintage appeal.
Authentic vintage and antique Turkish rugs are hand-knotted with wool. Each one is an exceptional work of art and one of a kind.
