Antique Bordjalou rug,
so called "Sewan Kazak" rug, Borchaly / Bordjalou Uyezd
Caucasian Sewan Kazak 3rd Quarter, 19th Century 5ft X 7ft 2in The
rugs of the Virginia Collection read like a guide book to the predominant
Caucasian styles. Here, sublime artistry and virtuoso dye work entrance
the viewer. Elements of folk naivete, including human figures, animal
forms and a scattering of totemic devices, add a welcome spontaneity.
