Antique Caucasian - Zeichur Small Scatter Size Wool Ivory Rug, Circa Date: 1930s. This exceptional piece represents the enduring geometric tradition of antique rugs from the Caucasus region. The Zeichur style, known for its finely articulated patterns and robust construction, is evident in the precise execution of the motifs across the field, showcasing the high level of technical skill inherent in early 20th-century weaving.

The field is dominated by a luminous, softly aged ground, placing this textile among desirable ivory color rugs. This neutral foundation provides a striking contrast to the secondary palette, which utilizes rich indigo blues, warm saffron yellows, and unexpected touches of soft lavender and brown, hallmarks of the natural dyes employed during this period.

Structurally, the composition employs a complex, repeating geometric arrangement, creating a sense of movement and density characteristic of an allover design. Large, stylized cruciform elements are diagonally connected by serrated indigo forms, ensuring the eye travels smoothly across the entire surface without relying on a central medallion for focus.

Measuring in the small scatter size, this rug is perfectly suited for transitional spaces, hallways, or as an accent piece layered over larger flooring. Its durable wool foundation and tightly knotted structure have preserved the clarity and integrity of the design, making it a sophisticated and functional artifact of traditional Caucasian artistry.
