These rugs are prized for their bold designs, which often include intricate borders, stylized floral patterns, and strong central motifs. The craftsmanship involved in making these rugs involves tight knotting and high-quality wool, which gives the rug its durability and luxurious texture.
The design of this rug features traditional Caucasian elements, with a central field filled with repeated geometric motifs and a detailed border that frames the overall composition. The use of rich, deep colors such as dark blue, red, and cream is typical of Caucasian rugs and adds to their aesthetic appeal. The intricate patterns are often symbolic, representing nature, protection, and prosperity, and are a testament to the cultural heritage of the region.
