BORDJALOU KAZAK
Southern Central Caucasian

(High-Decorative) ("New Arrivals Gallery")This dramatic antique Caucasian rug in the widely sought after Bordjalou Kazak sub-style captivates the viewer through its sheer artistic vitality, creativity and great spaciousness of design. Its vigorous palette of saturated natural dyes include cobalt blue, gold, and ivory against a warm coral base, complementing the intensely graphic hexagonal flower head motifs and continually changing series of border frames. Tribal ornaments whimsically scattered around the rug’s field include colorful zoomorphic designs, woven upside down, and adding to the whimsy of this folk art piece. Powerful border suites are the hallmark of this style as seen in this rug presenting the ocean wave, running water, mountain and Bordjalou "facing birds' heads" motifs. Learn About This Rug Type
