Lenkoran rug

Great Caucasian rugs are renowned for their bold graphic quality and superb use of color. This Lenkoran piece exemplifies these standards. Distinctive white palmettes of the Lenkoran type here float against a deep dark chocolate ground. Contrast is superb as light plays against dark with bold primary colors and green glistening throughout. A white trefoil border frames the piece and furthers the sense of depth and contrast as well as adding a subtle sense of movement.
