Notes:
A finely woven Shirvan rug distinguished by its exceptional clarity of drawing and tight lattice design. The field is filled with orderly rows of stylized bird/tree motifs, rendered with precision on a warm ivory-gold ground.
The palette is vibrant yet refined, combining madder red, indigo blue, soft turquoise, and golden ivory, creating strong contrast while maintaining elegance. The borders are complex and well-articulated, framing the composition with crisp geometric rhythm.
