Shirvan Perpedil 1101

Discover a truly exceptional and rare gem of Caucasian weaving with this magnificent Late 19th Century Caucasian Shirvan "Perpedil" Rug, meticulously hand-knotted in the late 1800s.

This bold, angular script-like pattern is a hallmark of Shirvan weaving, adding both graphic beauty and historical authenticity to the rug.

The intricate details and robust character of this rug speak volumes of the skilled artisans who wove it, reflecting centuries of rich cultural tradition. The natural variations inherent in antique, hand-knotted textiles lend this rug a profound sense of authenticity and a beautiful patina that only enhances its appeal with age.
