A vibrant and evocative vintage Karabagh rug from the Armenian village weavers of the Caucasus Mountains, this mid-20th century piece is a striking example of the region’s celebrated floral artistry. Woven in the distinctive Gol Farang (“foreign flowers”) style, the rug features a vivid bouquet motif—an impression of a grand floral arrangement or vase composition—set against a luminous red field.
This handwoven rug showcases a lush and expressive palette, with blossoms in soft pink, golden yellow, leafy green, and shades of blue unfolding across the surface in romantic, painterly detail. The black-brown border frames the composition beautifully, grounding the exuberant florals with a strong contrast that enhances their visual impact.
Karabagh rugs are renowned for their unique fusion of Eastern and Western aesthetics, and this piece perfectly exemplifies that legacy. The floral motifs reflect European influences, while the structure and weaving techniques remain deeply rooted in traditional Armenian and Caucasian textile traditions.
With its rich color story, balanced design, and exceptional craftsmanship, this rug is ideal for both traditional interiors and modern spaces seeking a bold, decorative statement with historical depth.
