CARPET #2413
Shirvan is part of present-day Azerbaijan and was populated by Azeri Turks and some Armenians, skilled weavers and dyers.
From an indigo background, seven geometric medallions stand out and contrast with a red and brown background, with white edges, with other minor ones inside, a classic Caucasian design. The border is wide for the size of the rug, it is formed by grooves, a main one with a red background with the “nenj” design in blue, red and brown tones, the auxiliary ones with a light blue background and serrated flowers and leaves. In the field there are four possible dates (1305).
