This Caucasian antique rug measures 3' 3" x 12' 10", and carries the direct rhythm of a long narrow tribal weaving. A central column of stepped geometric medallions runs end to end, framed by layered borders with small repeating motifs and a lively inner guard. The palette balances brick red, rust, cream, muted blue, and darker accents, softened by age and gentle wear. Its surface reads grounded and tactile, with low distress that preserves the design while lending warmth and character. Circa 1885 - 1900, it reflects the graphic clarity and regional vocabulary that define a well-kept antique rug.
