An Refined Vintage Azeri Rug with a Elegant Floral Details
This striking vintage Azeri rug is a refined example of mid-century Azerbaijani craftsmanship. Handwoven approximately 80 years ago, it embodies the qualities Azeri rugs are celebrated for: architectural medallion composition, elaborate floral artistry, and bold color relationships that feel both confident and balanced.
Design & Color Story
The design is anchored by a dramatic central medallion surrounded by elegant floral motifs that radiate outward across the field. The composition is both structured and ornate, with rhythmic botanical elements creating visual movement without overwhelming the eye. The red field provides warmth and intensity, while the generous blue border establishes strong definition and frames the composition with authority.
The palette is rich and layered. A deep red field forms the foundation, contrasted by a commanding blue border that creates bold architectural presence. Light blue and ivory accents throughout offer dimensional contrast and luminosity, adding depth and visual interest. Eight decades of age have mellowed the colors into a harmonious, saturated tonality.
In a space, this rug brings character and grounding—expressive yet balanced, traditional yet confident.
