This listing is for an Unusual Antique Caucasian piled rug which we think it is a Kuba or some kind of  Rug From a Region that was called something else 120 years ago , although the weave pulls it to Caucasian end of spectrum, Measuring 53 to 55 inches in width by about 83 Inches in length , weighing 9 lbs net , in As Shown condition with wear to pile throughout and several repairs as shown.

Soak Washed by a textile conservator multiple times , last on 5/30/21 , it is clean enough to touch face with.



Wool pile , Wool warp and weft.

I consider it Caucasian, Possibly Kuba with elements resembling dragons and shields . A collector that has a very similar rug , points out that An S design in Main border is similar to what it pictured  in a Karagashli plate 109 in Schurmann (Kuba district). I figure it is from last quarter of 19th C. or even much earlier . Another collector has one with basically the same design which he weighs as What the region was way back when . The weave on his rug is though more in line such weavings.

I have looked for the design countless hours to no avail.



It will be Kept and shipped folded..

Great Hanging Piece.
