This antique rug features a striking axial column of ten “Memling Gul” medallions rendered in vivid hues of French blue, ivory, terracotta, green, red, and yellow—each encapsulated in finely detailed outlines.

Crafted using handspun wool and dyed with natural, organic dyes, the rug exhibits a beautifully nuanced abrash—a softly shifting color variation that adds depth and character to the field. The wide main border frames the central motif with geometric patterns on an ivory background, accented with brick red, blue, green, and pale yellow. An authentic example of late 19th-century Caucasian tribal weaving with timeless aesthetic appeal.
