mid 19th century, 211 x 154 cm, South West Caucasus

A rare blue-ground Fachralo Kazak with a field design of two large, white eight-pointed stars enclosing a red cartouche and a red main border of geometric abstract palmettes aligned in a row. Finely woven, meticulously drawn and balanced in proportions, this Kazak is a particularly beautiful collector’s piece. – Slight signs of wear, partially restored selvedges, replaced upper kilim finish, good overall condition.
