Antique Perpedil Caucasian Rug 43493

Typical of the rugs of Caucasus, the thickly-bordered designs of the Kievan Rus are present in this design. Elements from Turkish, Rus, Persian, and Georgian rug design can be found in this beautiful Perpedil. The piece relies heavily on diagonal space and contrast, utilizing them both in color scheme and in overall design. Washes of sea-green and blue make for an expansive and diverse background amongst a varied array of ivory-white and red tangles. Mathematical inspiration is seen in the three center medallions that show a sequential design from top to bottom.
