This rug comes from Russia and was knotted by hand using traditional methods. High-quality wool from locally reared sheep was used. The rug features typical Russian patterns and ornaments reminiscent of the Tsarist era.


Russian rug

The Caucasus lies between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea. The Caucasian mountains are known for their picturesque landscape and cities, which have shaped many hand-knotted rugs from this region. Caucasian rugs are popular thanks to their colorful and vivid designs. Geometric and linear patterns are remarkably common on oriental rugs from the Caucasus.

Handspun wool

This rug is made of hand spun sheep wool of the highest quality. Especially in Iran (former Persia), Afghanistan and Pakistan wool is still spun by hand before the actual knotting of the rug begins. Wool has proven itself as a natural and extremely hard-wearing material over centuries. Among other things, it has dirt-repellent and heat-insulating properties. At the same time, wool is incomparably soft and has a natural shine.

Knotted by hand

Traditionally hand-knotted rugs still form the highest quality standard among all types of rugs. Depending on the type of knot, the rugs are extremely robust and can last for generations. The finer and tighter a rug is knotted, the more detailed ornaments and patterns can be depicted on the pile. At the same time, a very fine oriental rug requires a much higher manual effort as well as a higher level of experience and skill of the knotter. Thus the knot density also serves as a decisive value factor of hand-knotted rugs. The quality is not directly related to the knot density. A rather coarse rug may well have been made in excellent quality.
