| Description | This hand-knotted Talish rug is a special piece woven by the Talish people, who reside in the southeastern part of the Caucasus near the Caspian Sea. It is a work of profound meaning, expressed through a beautifully simple and contemplative design. The most striking feature is the expansive, monochromatic field at the rug's center. This intentional "empty" space is not merely a visual choice; it represents a design philosophy that symbolizes introspection, spiritual serenity, and harmony with the universe. Symmetrically placed upon this field are stylized flowers, medallions, and rose-like figures, which represent respect for nature and protective symbolism. A wide, green-toned border frames the composition, acting as a threshold between the inner and outer worlds. The diamond-patterned transitional stripes between the field and border are a signature feature of Talish rugs, signifying both a physical and symbolic boundary. Woven from wool on a wool foundation using the Turkish knot and colored with natural dyes, this rug is a durable and timeless work of art. |
