Object Description
A vivid and interesting antique Karabagh Wedding rug woven around 1880-1890 in very good original condition and with stunning early dyes! Rugs from the region of Karabagh loved to use the deep purple/red/pink tones which were made using the famous cochineal dried beetle dye. The greens and deep indigo blues enhance this antique Caucasian rug further. Wedding rugs usually depicted the bride and groom as we can see a third of the way down the rug.
