This is a 19th century Kazak tribal rug woven in the western part of the Caucasus mountains. Hand woven on a wool foundation with all wool pile the rug is in good condition with lovely deep red and blue hues. There is some obvious ware as can be seen in the photos but the rug has lots of live left yet and still looks great.

Kazak (or Qazax) is a small city in the Northwest of Azerbaijan controlling routes into Armenia and Georgia. Kazak rugs however are mainly woven by the people of Armenia and Afghanistan who are influenced by the Caucasian designs found in old rugs from Russia and the USSR region as well as those found in rugs from the northern parts of the Persian empire.

Typically geometric in pattern Kazaks tend to be red, yellow or gold and blue in colour. Designs can include animals, flowers and mediallions similar to tribal rugs but are almost always implemented with straight lines.
