Antique Karaja rug

Circa 1910
139 × 110 cm 4’6” x 3’7”
£2,150

Description

A richly coloured antique Karaja rug with good natural colours, especially the pale blue star motifs.  The white central latch-hook medallion lifts the rugs palette too.  A great, small tribal geometric rug ideal to sit in front of fireplace or in a hallway for example.  This type of rug looks fantastic with antique furniture and on wooden floors or sisal.  We have even placed these rugs in contemporary settings and they can look great in that environment too.  Condition is very smart, a fine weave and in good original order.

Antique Karaja rugs were woven in a village in the northeast of the Heriz region of Persia, not far from the Azerbaijan Border.  Their designs generally consisted of 8 pointed star motifs like this piece as well as weaving in animals and people which adds great interest. The sun-burst design is not uncommon or they would weave a more geometric central motif known as a latch-hook design.
