Shirvan 1539

This exquisite 19th-century Caucasian Shirvan area rug originates from the southern Azerbaijan region of the Caucasus, celebrated for its exceptional craftsmanship and rich textile heritage. Featuring a striking geometric triple-medallion design, the rug showcases a dynamic interplay of red and ivory medallions set against a beautifully abrash navy and blue-green field.

The intricate border, rendered in ivory, is adorned with bold geometric motifs in hues of blue, red, and yellow, adding a vibrant yet balanced frame to the composition. Distinctive abrash — the natural variation in vegetable-dyed wool — lends depth and character, with subtle transitions across three unique shades of blue and green that testify to its authentic handwoven origins.

Though gently worn, this antique rug remains in good overall condition, offering a timeless statement piece ideal for interior designers, decorators, and collectors seeking authenticity, artistry, and warmth for their curated spaces.
