1379 Antique Caucasian Dragon Sumac Soumac Rug

Masterpiece Dragon Sumac

This category is fascinating and this particular example is mesmerising in all its aspects – the motifs, the color and the aesthetic balance.

And in addition to the animals there’s even a little girl!

Estimated to be from the early-mid 1800s.

Some minor signs of wear.

Among my favorite pieces in the collection.

Azerbaijan.

This item has spent a lifetime being used for the purpose of its creation with the original artist/user. Signs of this life lived heartily may be present on the piece in the form of stains, thread loss, loose threads, holes, tears, color run and other imperfections. Therefore the condition must be assumed to be “not” perfect. More photos of such imperfections will be provided on request.
