Antique Caucasian Kuba Konagkend Rug

This 19th Century Konagkend rug has an alluring design. The four borders manage to display traditional caucasian motifs in a creative manner, using stylised spiders and shaded diagonal bars, whilst the central field is made up of various connecting polygons and small birds. Whilst this section may be difficult to interpret, it allows for a thought-provoking response from the admirer, as they get lost in the maze-like pattern. Therefore, the use of a limited colour palette with intruiging imagery seems to work well in this rug.
