Harshang Design with Kufic Border Rug

The source of rug comes from the book Orient Star – A Carpet Collection, E. Heinrich Kirchheim, Hali Publications Ltd, 1993 nr.79. This is an unusual design of 18th or 19th-century rug from Khila, Kuba region East Caucasus area. Very similar palmettes, drawn in a curvilinear manner and combined with identical forked leaves, can be seen on a few examples of workshop carpets made from the late seventeenth century onward in Herat in Khurasan province, east Persia, and the same pattern known as Harshang design was used in the Caucasus in the eighteenth century, as well. The design of the rug is interpreted by our designers, and vivid colors are chosen for this rug.
