Antique Signed and Dated Rare Gold Background Tribal Caucasian Kuba Rug, Country of Origin: The Caucasus, Circa Date: Late 19th Century – Featuring multiple borders, a decadent color scheme and a foreground that draws attention, this 19th century antique rug, a Caucasian Kuba rug has a tribal appeal that is hard to ignore. The luxurious saffron yellowish gold colored background sets the stage for this beautiful Kuba rug while each strand takes on a honey shade to amplify the other surrounding hues. Rich ruby, emerald green and cobalt accent color tones work in harmony together with the gold elements throughout. The jewel-tones sparkle within the rich background in the form of a French influence fleur-de-lis-like blossoms, creating an allover pattern that allows the viewer to appreciate each curl and movement. A beautifully designed, rare and collectible antique Kuba Caucasian rug, this luxurious rug is artistically superior, in many ways, to similar pieces that were woven roughly around the same time period and location.
