This large two-piece cover depicting camel caravans was woven in the southern Caucasus. The question of whether it was produced by Azeri, local Shahsavan or other tribal groups is yet to be resolved. It is a slitless tabby weaving on red and dark blue warps using wefts dyed in analogous colours. In the places where the two colours meet the surfaces acquire a purple sheen. The design is woven in the sumakh technique. Four camel caravans traverse the field from left to right, and the same theme appears in the wide blue border. Two panels are striking in that each of the large camels is always followed by a small one. – Good condition.

The three-row Memling gül design in the red field displays a somewhat rigid style of drawing and a choice of colours that differs greatly from other Caucasian rugs using the same ornamentation. This phenomenon is explained by the fact that this is an Armenian weaving. An Armenian inscription at the upper end stating the year of production, "1896", extends across the whole width of the field. – Minor repairs, somewhat reduced upper finish, otherwise well preserved.
Since dragon design sumakhs are frequently dated, they are easier to classify chronologically than other Caucasian flatweaves. In addition, the dates allow us to trace the development of the design in the 19th century. A striking fact is its amazing consistency until the dawn of the 20th century. However, there are wide variations in the border designs. Dated "1870", this example has the same border design as the dragon sumakh published by Boralevi, dated "1873". – Signs of age and wear, a number of restored areas, replaced selvedges.

The North Persian port town of Rasht on the Caspian Sea looks back on a long tradition of producing elaborate embroideries. Their designs were embroidered in silk yarn on a patchwork foundation of wool flannel in changing colours. In this splendid example drawn with great precision, the field design consists of large red-ground cartouches with curved outlines which each contain four circles filled with red roses. Convoluted vines decorated with blossoms hermetically cover the ground. This large embroidery was used either as a cover or as a hanging. – Very good condition. An additional red design band which constitutes the finish at both ends has been folded back and stitched to the reverse, so it is not visible in the illustration.
The designs of Genje rugs are heterogeneous and frequently influenced by other regions. In this very finely woven example, the narrow central field is filled with diagonal stripes in the style of Shirvan carpets. The wide five-band border resembles Karabagh weavings in ornamentation and palette. – Repiled lower finish, new overcasting along the sides, good overall condition with a high pile.
Three large diamonds with serrated outlines are aligned on the central axis of the blazing red field, each enclosing a cruciform floral cluster. Analogous devices are offset against them along the sides. The white main border displays a geometrically stylised vine with flowers in diverse colours. A comparative example with an Armenian inscription and the date 1886 is in the History Museum of Armenia in Yerevan. – Slight signs of age and wear, two short stitched vertical tears, replaced selvedges.
This Kurdish rug featuring a garden design was woven in the mountainous region surrounding Lake Urmia. The group is known as Sauj Bulag, a name derived from their old trading centre. A large tree decorated with palmettes, serrated diamonds and leaves constitutes the central axis of the mirror-image composition; the lateral spaces contain octagons and large cartouches. Drawn in brilliant and diverse colours, the designs stand out like reliefs from the corroded dark brown ground of the field. The yellow main border is embellished with a leaf and calyx vine. – Slight signs of age and wear, corroded brown, original finishes all around.
This Kurdish rug is a weaving by the Shakak tribe who lived in the area north west of Lake Urmia. A dense tile design of large diamonds covers the dark brown field. According to Eagleton's research, the spider-like gül within the diamonds is a favourite motif of the Shakak tribe. The white main border is decorated with large bold crosses. Burns illustrates an even older example of the group. – Signs of age and wear, one crease, damaged ends, selvedges in need of repair.

Except for slight damage to the two end finishes, this expressive Kurdish rug woven in the Darreh Gaz region north east of Guchan is very well preserved.

In this splendid example drawn with great precision, the field design consists of large red-ground cartouches with curved outlines which each contain four circles filled with red roses. Convoluted vines decorated with blossoms hermetically cover the ground. This large embroidery was used either as a cover or as a hanging. \u2013 Very good condition. An additional red design band which constitutes the finish at both ends has been folded back and stitched to the reverse, so it is not visible in the illustration.<\/p>","index":"44","index2":"","intro":"","literature":"","published":"","height":"312","origin_id":"22","highlight":"0","age":"second half 19th century","dimensions":"312 x 156 cm","region":"North Persia, Gilan","price":"3,500.00","price_gbp":"0.00","price_usd":"0.00","price_double":3500,"maxprice":"4,500.00","maxprice_gbp":"0.00","maxprice_usd":"0.00","maxprice_double":4500,"hammerprice":"no reserve","hammerprice_gbp":"no reserve","hammerprice_usd":"no reserve","hammerprice_double":0,"endprice":"-1.00","endprice_gbp":"0.00","endprice_usd":"0.00","endprice_double":-1},"flag":{"result":false,"pricedisplay":"endprice","endprice":false,"hammerprice":false,"literature":false,"published":false,"wishlist":false,"zoomify":true}},{"data":{"id":"40750","list_thumbnail":"<meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.rippon-boswell-wiesbaden.de\/en\/online_catalogue\/?lot=40750\">\n<a itemprop=\"image\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"lot_link\" title=\"Genje\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rippon-boswell-wiesbaden.de\/en\/online_catalogue\/?lot=40750\"><meta itemprop=\"contentUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.rippon-boswell-wiesbaden.de\/img\/zoomify\/auction_102\/fDiDd9YroxY6ueM2j.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.rippon-boswell-wiesbaden.de\/local\/cache\/img\/zoomify\/auction_102\/fDiDd9YroxY6ueM2j_reduced_200x200_01.jpg\" width=\"82\" height=\"200\" itemprop=\"thumbnail\" alt=\"Genje\"><div class=\"zoom_container\"> <\/div><\/a>","grid_thumbnail":"<meta itemprop=\"url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.rippon-boswell-wiesbaden.de\/en\/online_catalogue\/?lot=40750\">\n<a itemprop=\"image\" itemscope itemtype=\"http:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" class=\"lot_link\" title=\"Genje\" href=\"https:\/\/www.rippon-boswell-wiesbaden.de\/en\/online_catalogue\/?lot=40750\"><meta itemprop=\"contentUrl\" content=\"https:\/\/www.rippon-boswell-wiesbaden.de\/img\/zoomify\/auction_102\/fDiDd9YroxY6ueM2j.jpg\"><img src=\"https:\/\/www.rippon-boswell-wiesbaden.de\/local\/cache\/img\/zoomify\/auction_102\/fDiDd9YroxY6ueM2j_reduced_156x156_01.jpg\" width=\"64\" height=\"156\" itemprop=\"thumbnail\" alt=\"Genje\"><div class=\"zoom_container\"> <\/div><\/a>","zoomify_path":"https:\/\/www.rippon-boswell-wiesbaden.de\/img\/zoomify\/auction_102\/fDiDd9YroxY6ueM2j","thumb":"https:\/\/www.rippon-boswell-wiesbaden.de\/local\/cache\/img\/zoomify\/auction_102\/fDiDd9YroxY6ueM2j_reduced_225x225_01.jpg","literature_title":"Literature","published_title":"Published","catalogtext":"Genje","description":"<p>The designs of Genje rugs are heterogeneous and frequently influenced by other regions.
