Antique Caucasian Bokara Rug, Caucasian, Early 20th Century – This exquisite antique Bokara-style rug from the Caucasus features a stunning series of major and minor guls that create a harmonious allover repeating pattern.

The elaborate borders showcase radiant burdock-style sunbursts with dramatic appendages. These repeating motifs are rendered in alternating colors that accentuate the intricate details. The decorative end pieces incorporate contrasting latch hook accents that form secondary geometric figures. This antique main carpet uses a classic color scheme with crisp white accents, deep midnight blues and bold brick red hues that give this antique Caucasian Bokara rug its distinctive appearance.
