Curated Collection of Authentic 19th and The Early 20th Century Fine Handwoven Rugs, Tapestries and Textiles From Around the World
Chondsoresk 1481
This exceptional Chondsoresk carpet hails from the mid-1800s and originates from the village of Chondoresh in the Karabagh region of the Caucasus mountains—an area renowned for producing highly collectible and artistically significant rugs. A true rarity, this piece features two prominent "Cloudband" medallions, a motif deeply rooted in the Caucasian weaving tradition.
The field is rendered in a highly desirable abrash green—an uncommon and sought-after color among connoisseurs—surrounded by a vibrant tomato red backdrop that hosts an intricate array of geometric motifs. Delicate and bold shapes in ivory, yellow, pink, red, and various shades of blue are meticulously arranged throughout, reflecting the sophisticated tribal artistry of the era.
This carpet is not only a remarkable example of 19th-century Caucasian craftsmanship but also a statement piece ideal for refined interiors—whether used as a focal point in a curated living space or as a collector's highlight.
