Antique Caucasian Bokara Rug, Origin: Persia, Circa: Turn of the 20th Century – Here is a remarkable antique Oriental rug – an antique Bokara rug, woven in the Caucasus region around the turn of the twentieth century. Bokara rugs are sought after and celebrated for their unique and authentic tribal aesthetics, a characteristic shared by many Caucasian rug styles. Woven by the nomadic Turkoman tribes who inhabited the Caucasus and Uzbekistan, this carpet makes excellent use of the classic Turkmen gul, which uses a series of tile-like quadrants to form a pattern of large and small guls linked by interlocking polygons. Imitating the intense black, red, and white color scheme of traditional kilims, this pile-carpet from Bokara uses many tribal motifs, including double ram’s horn borders filled with secondary protection motifs as well as ladders and stepped polygons. A beautiful antique rug, this antique Bokara carpet is an excellent example of an alluring antique rug style.
