This hand knotted wool contemporary Caucasian and Kazak style rug features an all-over floral boteh pattern spread across an abrashed ink blue field. The widely used boteh motif is thought to symbolize life with its resemblance to a number of natural forms, including leaves, bushes, pinecones, sprouts and flames. Arranged in offset rows, the boteh in this particular Caucasian-style rug contain small floral blooms, adding a touch of romance to the otherwise bold, classic design. The large main border features a hooked meander vine motif that is thought to have originated from Turkmen designs. In combination with a striking series of secondary borders featuring almond blossom, S-shapes, and calyx motifs, the bold geometric forms of the wonderful main border give the timeless boteh patterns of the field added weight and grandeur. Barber’s pole listels separate each of the borders, a small but important detail that further adds to the refinement of the piece. Unexpected lime green and creamy yellow accents bring a sense of balance and intrigue to the sumptuous blues and oranges that dominate the rich color palette. Poised between traditional and contemporary aesthetics, this handsome Caucasian-style rug would be a magnificent addition to any interior. Rendered in variegated shades of ink blue, cerulean, terra cotta, burnt orange, rust, brick red, brass, goldenrod, ocher, gold, camel, ecru, tan, sand, chartreuse, lime, and olive. Abrash. Hand knotted wool. Made in India. Measures: 08'05 x 11'02. See less
