Antique Caucasian Small Scatter Size Wool Multicolor Moghan Rug, Circa Date: 1890s. This exceptional example of nomadic weaving traditions represents a truly authentic antique rug from the late 19th century. Its dense wool pile and robust construction speak to the enduring quality characteristic of the region's output, ensuring its continued presence as a collectible textile.

The palette is a masterclass in saturation, utilizing rich madder reds, deep indigo blues, and forest greens, all balanced by crisp ivory highlights. These powerful, naturally dyed hues define the composition, making it a superb specimen among multicolor jewel tone rugs that command attention in any sophisticated setting.

Characteristic of tribal Caucasian production, the field features a highly organized series of repeating octagonal and stepped medallions. This dense arrangement creates a dynamic allover design, where each geometric motif is framed by contrasting colors and bold, stylized hooks and meander borders, showcasing the weaver's masterful command of space.

Measuring perfectly as a functional accent piece, this textile falls into the desirable category of small scatter size rugs. Its compact dimensions make it ideal for placement beside a chair, within a hallway entrance, or layered over a larger, neutral carpet, offering an immediate injection of historical texture and color.
