Antique Rugs and Carpets from Caucasus
A region that produces distinctive rugs since the end of the 18th century, antique Caucasus rugs are primarily produced as village pieces rather than as city productions. Typically featuring bold geometric designs in primary colors, these antique rugs are primarily made of materials that are particular to their tribal provinces. Styles typical to the Caucasus region are Shirvan, Dagestan, Kuba and Kazak rugs.
