{"product_id":"ordutch-konagkend-kuba-rug","title":"Ordutch-Konagkend Kuba Rug","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe design source of the rug comes from the book \u003cstrong\u003eCaucasian Carpets, E. Gans-Reudin, Thames and Hudson, Switzerland 1986, pg.284\u003c\/strong\u003e. This is a spectacular example of the Orducth-Konagkend type rug in the late 19th century in the Kuba region, Caucasus. There are three principal designs for rugs attributed to Konagkend ( Konakkent or Konakhend ). The first has a large cruciform medallion, the second, called by Kerimov and Schürmann 'Ordutch-Konagkend', has a series of large octagons, and the third, and probably best known, has a stiff, angular lattice based on hexagonal forms. Each type has a quite different aesthetic appeal and in each case, the design is reminiscent of other rugs. The cruciform medallion type usually has a bright, light palette and in both color and design is reminiscent of Kurdish weavings and certain Turkish village rugs. The 'Ordutch-Konagkend' pieces have strong affinities with Baku and other north Shirvan rugs, and the lattice type is the closest to the concept of design most normally associated with Kuba as well as having links with earlier groups of, principally Turkish, carpets. This rug has unique rows of cruciform medallions in the large border with a nicely decorated flower lattice in the center. Our designers interpret the design of this rug and soft colors are chosen for this rug.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColor summary:\u003c\/strong\u003e \t9\tcolors in total;\t \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eImperial Red \u003c\/strong\u003e 415 (Madder Root) \u003c\/li\u003e\t\t\t\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNatural Wool Color \u003c\/strong\u003e 320 (Specially Washed)\u003c\/li\u003e\t\t\t\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDark Brown \u003c\/strong\u003e 316 (No Dye - Sheep’s Own Color) \u003c\/li\u003e\t\t\t\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNavy Blue \u003c\/strong\u003e 432 (Indigo -  Pomegranate)\u003c\/li\u003e\t\t\t\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSunray Color \u003c\/strong\u003e 405 (Henna)  \u003c\/li\u003e\t\t\t\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLucario Blue \u003c\/strong\u003e 342 (Spurge - Madder Root - Indigo) \u003c\/li\u003e\t\t\t\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDusty Turquoise \u003c\/strong\u003e 340 (Spurge - Madder Root - Indigo - Walnut Husk) \u003c\/li\u003e\t\t\t\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLight French Beige \u003c\/strong\u003e 421 (Tea - Pomegranate - Walnut Husk)\u003c\/li\u003e\t\t\t\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCoral \u003c\/strong\u003e 531 (Madder Root - Walnut Husk)\u003c\/li\u003e \t\t\t\n\t\t\t\n \u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor more information about our \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.araratrugs.com\/colors\/\"\u003ecolors\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/p\u003e\t\t\t\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ararat Rugs","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51700747075880,"sku":"ART00617","price":5330.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0956\/7780\/8936\/files\/id_ART00617_V_v2.jpg?v=1776121922","url":"https:\/\/www.araratrugs.com\/products\/ordutch-konagkend-kuba-rug","provider":"Ararat Rugs","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
