Chirvan perepedil rug (warp, weft and wool pile), East Cauca - Lot 465
Chirvan perepedil rug (warp, weft and wool pile), East Caucasus, Kouba region, circa 1930-1960. The navy-blue field is adorned with the complex decoration characteristic of carpets of this origin, organized around a white octagon and a red star rosette alternating with ample curvilinear motifs, often related to the heraldic motif of rams' horns, but probably derived from the geometrization of plant motifs. On the sides, stylized saber hilt motifs also echoing the ram's horn motif and curious stylized animals clash. The rest of the field is covered with minor polychrome stylized motifs. The field is framed by a main ivory border of multicolored flower garlands, set between two fine counter-borders. 268 x 150 cm (Worn, frayed and probably diminished).
