HOT ! Antique Prayer Rug / 3x5 Vintage Rug #781

Produced in the late 19th century, this exquisite antique Caucasian prayer rug (woven north of Persia) boasts a crisp tribal design that exudes an edgy, stylish vibe. The low wool pile and wool foundation give it a soft, cozy feel underfoot, while the unique border band pattern features a stunning array of mountain motifs that reflect the rugged beauty of the region.

But what truly sets this rug apart is its rich history. Featuring a Mihrab design, this lovely rug belonged to a single person who carried it with them on their daily travels, infusing it with their own personal story, experiences, and spiritual reverence. This prayer rug is adorned with intricate tribal motifs that tell the story of the woman who wove it; a reflection of her unique cultural heritage, and each one tells a tale of the people and places that shaped her life, imbuing this gem with a sense of originality.

Handwoven with vegetable-dyed wool, this rug is a testament to the ancient art of rug making. The abrash effect seen throughout this beauty adds to the rug\'s character and authenticity, while the wool loss in one spot serves as a reminder of its age and journey. Please see pics for full character and condition. This wonderful prayer rug is sure to become a treasured heirloom for generations to come.

Low pile, worn, handwoven with vegetable dyed wool.
