An antique Borjalou Kasak rug, Caucasus. An early stunning Borjalou collectors piece with the classical dramatic polycrome latch-hook border as wide as the central field, red centre field with two hooked rhombus medallions in varying colors. This piece contains a great palette of strong and clear natural colors including a powerful aubergine color. Second half 19th century. 203×147 cm.

Taking the age in consideration, the rug appears in rather good and complete condition. The rug has partly original edges/some parts repaired/later overcasted. Both ends appears original(one end complete to the last knot but with missing front weaving, the other end with missing outer black and white line, last 2 cm). The piece has no major repairs/repilings. The rugs has minor mendings, a few repairs at foundation and minor repiled areas. The pile is generally medium with some low areas. All remarks are mentioned here, pointed out/marked with a black pen on the attached black and white image. Futhermore remarks documented with individual images. If you need anything further elaborate please let me know.
