This rug comes from the Caucasus, the mountainous region stretching between the Black Sea and the Caspian Sea, encompassing what is today Azerbaijan, Armenia and Georgia. The Caucasus has one of the oldest and most distinctive rug weaving traditions in the world, producing rugs that are immediately recognisable for their bold geometry, strong structure and confident use of pattern.

Caucasian rugs are woven by tribal and village weavers working from memory and personal interpretation. The designs are angular and geometric by nature, the loom and the weaving technique favour straight lines and sharp angles. Medallions, hooked border motifs, stylised animals, tribal symbols and repeating geometric fields are the vocabulary of this tradition. The borders are strong and structured, often carrying as much visual weight as the field itself.

Hand-knotted from wool on a wool or cotton foundation. As a vintage piece, the colours have already mellowed and the pile has settled into a character that only time and natural dyes together produce.

Hand-spun wool pile on a cotton foundation, made entirely from natural fibres.
Hand-knotted.

Vintage. Carefully washed and revitalised, with any required restoration completed by skilled hands, allowing the piece to begin a new chapter in excellent condition.

Circa 1960–1980.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will the rug look the same in person as it does online?

We photograph every rug in natural light with minimal editing, so the colours you see are as true to life as possible. It’s something we take a lot of care with, and something our customers often comment on.

That said, colours can shift slightly depending on your screen or the lighting in your home. If you’d like extra photos or a video before purchasing, we’re always happy to help.

How long does delivery usually take?

Delivery times depend on your location.

For most Australian orders, delivery is quite quick. NSW and VIC typically arrive within 1–2 business days, the ACT within 2–3 business days, QLD and TAS within 2–4 business days, and WA and the NT within 3–6 business days.

Most international deliveries arrive within 1–4 weeks.

You can find more detailed timeframes on our Shipping & Delivery page: Shipping & Delivery.

Can I see this rug in person before I decide?

Of course. You’re very welcome to visit our Rowville warehouse to view rugs in person.

If there’s a particular piece you’d like to see, just let us know in advance and we’ll have it ready for you.

All visits are by appointment, but we’re very flexible with timing and happy to work around what suits you best. Feel free to give us a call or message us anytime and we’ll find a time that works.

What if the rug isn't quite right?

We want you to feel completely confident in your purchase. If something doesn’t feel right once you’ve seen it in your space, we’re here to help.

We accept returns or exchanges on full-priced items, meaning pieces that are not part of our clearance collection.

Returns must be initiated within 4 days of receiving your order, or within 4 days of purchase if bought in person.

As each rug is handmade and one of a kind, we keep this window short so that any returned piece can be offered again in the same condition.

Rugs must be returned in the same condition they were received.
