Info : Karabakh-Azeri antique carpets originate from the Karabakh region in Azerbaijan and are among the most significant Caucasian carpets. They are known for their rich natural colors (deep red, blue, ivory), large medallions, floral motifs, and geometric borders. These carpets are hand-knotted from high-quality sheep's wool (symmetrical knot) and often feature stylized rose or animal motifs. Ancient Karabakh carpets are today sought-after collectibles, impressively combining traditional craftsmanship and Azerbaijani culture. Features of a Shirvan rug: Pattern: Shirvan rugs are characterized by intricate, symmetrical patterns with medallions, stylized flowers, diamonds, and abstract animal motifs. Colors: Common colors include red, blue, green, ivory, and yellow, often derived from natural plant and mineral dyes. Material: These rugs are usually made of hand-spun wool on a cotton or wool warp, giving them a fine, durable texture. Borders: The borders are usually richly decorated with Caucasian symbols, including hook motifs (amulets), wave lines (watermarks) and rosettes. Meaning & rarity Ancient Shirvan rugs are highly sought after today as they are among the finest Caucasian carpets. They were made in small villages, often with individual patterns, making each rug unique. Especially valuable are well-preserved pieces with clear patterns and vivid natural colors. This uploaded image shows a classic Shirvan rug with a typical red field, central medallions, and geometric ornaments. The striking edge patterns and fine details speak to a handmade one-of-a-kind piece.
