This is an authentic antique Gendje Caucasian rug dating to the late 19th century, handwoven in wool with the region’s signature diagonal lattice motifs and vibrant vegetable-dyed palette. Measuring approximately 50 x 85 inches (4 x 7 ft), it displays the classic repeating geometric forms and colorful border system that distinguish Gendje village weaving from neighboring Shirvan and Kazak workshops.
The rug shows significant age appropriate wear throughout the field, with visible low and worn pile areas, edge losses, and fraying along the ends. Despite the wear, the structure remains stable, and the pattern is still strong and appealing for collectors of authentic, unrestored Caucasian textiles.
A wonderful example of late 1800s craftsmanship, this rug is ideal for display, study, or use in a space where its worn, rustic character is appreciated. Perfect for collectors seeking true 19th century Caucasian weaving with original patina.
