This striking handwoven rug showcases a bold geometric medallion design, deeply rooted in traditional Caucasian and tribal aesthetics. Dominated by a vivid crimson red field, the central medallion features a deep navy blue ground adorned with intricate botanical motifs and stylized floral elements in ivory, ochre, and rust tones.

Surrounding the central motif is a wide field of sky blue, densely patterned with symbolic figures and motifs in jewel tones, creating a harmonious contrast against the red. The stepped edges of the red and blue fields lend a dynamic sense of movement, drawing the eye toward the intricately detailed center.

The ivory outer border is decorated with a repeating series of rosettes, hooked motifs, and geometric devices, framed by multiple fine guard borders in complementary colors. Zigzag and serrated patterns echo traditional tribal influences, imbuing the rug with a sense of energy and rhythm.

Woven from high-quality wool using time-honored techniques, this piece is not only visually captivating but also durable and richly textured—ideal for a grand living space, gallery, or collector’s room.
