Lot Essay


A comparable example of this lesser known design with the same mock-kufic border but with the addition of four octagonal minor guls to each corner of the field, is published 'The Treasures of the Caucasus - Rugs from American Collections', Washington, 1993, pl.26. Another rug from the same group but with a serrated leaf and glass border was published by Eberhart Herrmann, Von Uschak Bis Yarkand, Munich, 1982, p.74, pl.39.
