On the Design:

This antique Kazak rug uniquely recaptures the spirit of this lineage with a large-scale medallion commanding attention in the center—a bold play of geometric patterns and paisleys like those in the field corners, most unexpected even for this style. Here, a deep navy blue field underscores gold, red, teal, and cream tones among the many saturated, vibrant colors at play. The geometric patterns in the thick border surrounded by two mirroring bands don't simply enclose the design; they engage with it through slightly juxtaposed colors like teal and an entirely different vocabulary of geometric forms. It’s a gracious rug with a cultured personality, well suited for a wide array of decor possibilities.

Condition:

This antique Kazak rug further enjoys good condition for its age and origin, and is ready for the floor. See less
