Caucasian fine Shirvan / Erivan rug (122 x 100cm)

SOLD (JH)

This finely made rug has unusually long pile but in rather lustrous quality wool. Unusual since within the Soviet period when this rug was made wool quality deteriorated with standardisation of economies. Also made beyond the workshop qualities of the times so one can surmise a special endeavor  here in the little square sized rug deisplaying all the hallmarks of the best Shirvan weaving quality

Condition is excellent
