Immerse yourself in the timeless beauty of Shirvan Rugs, a collection of handwoven masterpieces crafted with meticulous attention to detail. Each rug is a unique work of art imbued with the rich heritage and artistry of rug-making traditions.
Rugs from the Shirvan region are renowned for their intricate beauty and historical significance. Unlike many Caucasian rugs, Shirvan rugs boast a formal style and complex designs. They stand out with their deep, rich colours, well-organised compositions, and remarkable patterns.
Imagine grand medallions bursting with colour, intricate Afshan designs, and stunning all-over patterns filled with symbolic motifs and angular floral details. These are just some of the hallmarks that make Shirvan rugs truly exceptional.
Shirvan rugs stand out among Caucasian carpets for their exceptional quality and intricate hand-knotting. A defining characteristic of antique Shirvan rugs is their elegant simplicity. Often, twin medallions emerge from a deep indigo background, creating a striking and innovative design. Every detail in the rug contributes to a harmonious balance and symmetry.
This increased demand initially pushed weavers to create even more intricate designs with finer knots. However, it quickly outpaced their capacity. Traditional dyes were replaced with commercially produced ones.
Designs became simpler and more symmetrical, losing the individual character provided by the small, secondary motifs that were excluded. This shift marked the end of the unique Shirvan rug tradition.
Shirvan Rugs are meticulously crafted using only the finest materials. Soft, lustrous wool and shimmering silk create a luxurious feel underfoot, while natural dyes ensure vibrant, long-lasting colours. Our commitment to quality ensures that each rug becomes a treasured heirloom to be passed down through generations.
Our collection encompasses diverse styles, from the intricate geometric patterns of traditional rugs to the more contemporary designs that showcase modern sensibilities. Whether you seek a classic Persian motif or a captivating contemporary piece, Shirvan Rugs offers a rug to complement your unique style and décor.
The creation of a Shirvan rug is a labour of love. Skilled artisans meticulously hand-knot each rug, weaving their expertise and heritage into every thread. This time-honoured process results in rugs that are not only beautiful but also possess an undeniable authenticity.
