Antique Karabagh Carpet, Caucasus, 1900 — Rich and angular elements are what represent the motifs of this antique Caucasian carpet. Viewers are immediately treated to a delightfully winding path of geometric shapes that rise and fall in triangular patterns, leading the eye downward through the simple, yet regal piece. Beautiful flowers of gentle pink, bright tangerine and rich, dark plum are woven within the soft cream borders innermost to the gold background at the center of the piece. The outer edges are defined by a slightly darker flaxen hue, acting as a unifying and grounding border to the rest of the active and mobile elements throughout this antique carpet.
