Kazak

This one-of-a-kind piece in dark red and golden beige unites traditional craftsmanship with timeless elegance. At approx. 120,000 knots per m² the workmanship is correspondingly painstaking, as you can see in the precise drawing of the design and the finely worked details. Its 285 × 110 cm make it a runner for hallway and entrance hall. It also cuts a fine figure in a long corridor or on a landing. The harmonious colouring and the characteristic texture give any room an exclusive, homely atmosphere. A rug of this quality is far more than a piece of furnishing – it is a piece of traditional textile art with individual character and lasting value.

Origin

Kazak (also spelled Kasak) rugs belong to the group of Caucasian rugs. Rugs have been made in the Caucasus since the end of the 18th century. Characteristic are the abstract, geometric tribal patterns in primary colours. Typically the geometric – and more rarely floral – motifs are rendered in intense, high-contrast colours. In the 19th century, a considerable share of these rugs, produced mainly in villages, was exported to the West under Russian control.

Material

The pile of this Kazak was hand-knotted from high-quality new wool. New wool is obtained by gently shearing sheep. New wool is a renewable, natural raw material with a whole range of impressive properties: thanks to the natural lanolin in the wool, the surface repels droplets of water and is therefore naturally protected against dirt. Wool also offers excellent thermal insulation, helps regulate the indoor climate and absorbs sound.

The foundation (weft and warp threads) of this Kazak is new wool.

Condition

You are not the first to take a liking to this Kazak. It had owners before you who valued and used it. It was knotted around 1920. It has been thoroughly cleaned and is in good but unrestored condition. The pile has become a little thinner over the years. We have not restored this Kazak because we feel it has a special charm just as it is. If you would like us to, we are of course happy to restore the rug for you. Either way, this Kazak will bring you joy for decades to come.

A note on the photos

The colours of this rug change depending on which side you look at it from. It all depends on whether the light falls with the nap of the pile or against it. That is why we have photographed the rug from several angles.
