DAGHESTAN RUG
Size 8' × 3'6"
FROM THE COLLECTION OF THE AUTHOR
Knot: Ghiordes. Seven to the inch horizontally and eight vertically, making fifty-six to the square inch.
This rug illustrates the best Caucasian spirit in design and workmanship. It is glorious in color and its combination of blues, reds, yellows and greens belong to an age which is bygone in the textile art of Caucasia.
The Georgian design in the outer border is a Caucasian characteristic and especially of the Daghestans.
