(Connoisseur-Caliber) ("New Arrivals Gallery") Lovers of Caucasian rugs find themselves drawn to masterful risk-taking and the re-imagining of time-honored designs. Daghestan marks the north-eastern border of the Caucasian rug-making regions, and as such, the opportunities for the cross-pollination of designs over time are rampant. A panoply of coveted connoisseur attributes is present in this intensely creative piece at once profoundly archetypal and strikingly modern. It is emblazoned by five-and-a-half pixellated star motifs surrounded by an array of apotropaic motifs with the precision of a supercomputer circuit board. Wheels of Life, dragon cloudbands, chessboards, and esoteric emblems sparkle throughout the field amidst a sprinkling of diamonds that glitter like deep space galaxies. Its thrilling color palette is chromatically diverse and still shimmers with a gentle intensity that is only possible through 19th-century mountain wool quality. This piece is in remarkable condition with even, medium pile that amplifies the clarity of the dazzling and sophisticated pattern. It is a stellar find for tribal rug aficionadoes who think they have seen it all.
