ANTIQUE ARMENIAN KARABAGH LINEA angular vines and star devicesKarabagh weavings marry tribal strength with a more expressive floral vocabulary. Large palmettes, rosettes and occasionally boteh motifs bloom across richly dyed grounds. The wool is supple yet robust, absorbing natural pigments with luminous depth. Compositions feel generous and animated yet always disciplined by carefully drawn guard borders. For collectors, Karabagh offers both romantic flourish and structural integrity.
