A rich madder-red field blazes with a lattice of bold eight-pointed Lesghi stars in this hand-knotted Kazak — the great stepped medallions worked in gold, teal, green and indigo, linked by hooked crosses and small tribal figures. Wide golden borders, packed with running latch-hooks, zigzags and geometric flowers, frame the fiery centre. It has all the confident scale and glowing colour that make Kazak rugs so loved.
Hand-knotted in Afghanistan from hand-spun highland wool, the pile is thick, lustrous and hard-wearing. The colours are drawn from natural dyes, so the red glows with abrash and every star is drawn slightly differently — the honest mark of a genuine one-of-a-kind, hand-made piece.
