Lot: 101
Kazak: A very old and ethnologically interesting Kazak, with a number of
decorative elements scattered at random across a green met hane field
abrashed in several tones, as well as an extra wide, white-ground main
border. The form seen at the upper end of the field could be interpreted as
a date, but probably constitutes an abstract four-legged animal. The
structure, with salmon wefts, is an indication of the age of the rug. – The
original finishes, and probably the outermost border, are missing all
around. Several repiled sections, two stitched tears in the left-hand border
area, low pile.
