Description

Words cannot describe how stunning this little rare Lesghi rug is, you need to see it up close to fully appreciate the colours and quality of wool on display! It has a thick soft wool pile, full of early aubergine dyes, yellows, deep reds, greens and blues.  An absolute stunning Caucasian rug! Their is corrosion to the brown/black background, which adds character and gives the pile an embossed look and feel.

We love the large and bold ivory border with the Kufic design, or more often know as the ‘Crab’ border, which is actually a crude rosette with four crudely drawn leaves.  We love the crab design though. Lesghi are famous for their bold star design in the centre, which these lovely rug has.  Lesghi rugs come from the Kuba region in the north of the Caucasus and more often are woven with rich reds and vivid indigo blues.

A rare highly collectable, almost perfect pile and condition antique Lesghi rug.  Please contact us to view it at home or at our showroom soon.
