Shirvan Prayer Rug 1103

This 19th century Caucasian Shirvan rug from the southern Azerbaijan region is a rare example of tribal artistry, woven in an elegant allover paisley (boteh) pattern. The field features a distinctive abrash French blue palette with beautifully layered tonal variations in blue and green, achieved through the use of hand-dyed vegetable pigments. The ivory border is framed with classic geometric motifs in red, blue, and yellow, adding a striking contrast to the expressive tribal composition. Worn from generations of history yet remarkably charming, this authentic piece carries a refined “shabby chic” aesthetic—perfect for Bohemian, or eclectic modern interiors.
