Antique Shirvan Kuba | #290809 | 4' X 9'5"
Antique Shirvan Kuba Circa 1940
Shirvan Eastern Caucasian long rug Dated either 1256 or 1244 (1839 or 1827) The dark indigo field displays a Caucasian version of in-and-out palmette pattern from 17th century Persian carpets. The layout is based on three palmette cruciforms around which are scattered cogwheel rosettes, half medallions and a variety of small stars, flowers, and lozenges , detailed in green and yellow. There is a panel with a date 1244 or 1256 near the top of the field. The narrow sapphire blue border has gold rosettes and vine pattern and is flanked by ivory S and block meanders. This rug is a fine example of a small group of similar pieces, almost all bearing dates in the early 19 century, on either blue or red grounds. All examples are rare and very infrequently encountered in the trade. It is possible that a single workshop was responsible for all of them. The antique Shirvan rug is ready to go, and in overall very good condition.
