Origin: Caucasus
Date: Last quarter of the 19th century
Dimensions: 222 × 122 cm
Description:
An exceptional Khyzy rug from the eastern Caucasus, featuring three eight-pointed star medallions—typically seen in Akstafa pieces—flanked by fork-leaf motifs from Afshan and Karagashli traditions. This fusion reflects a rare cultural synthesis.
The deep blue field with bold abrash adds movement, while saturated reds and ivory tones enrich the natural palette. The main border presents a rare alternating-color Kufic design; minor borders show stylized rosettes.
