Vintage Caucasian Shahsavan Rug, Caucasus, Mid 20th Century — The use of geometric shapes and bright, bold primary colors such as those seen in this vintage mid-20th century Caucasian Shahsavan rug are hallmarks of this  rug variety. The complexity of the geometric designs in this particular piece are especially appealing. Three rectangular blocks in red and blue form the focal point of this rug, with each section containing colorful circular motifs. In other bands bordering the rectangles at center, this pattern is repeated which lends continuity to the overall design. Also part of the border of this rug is a wide band in which a bright and eye-catching triangular motif adds a feeling of energy to this vintage piece.
