Shirvan Facharalo Prayer Rug, Azerbaijan, 1903 This antiquer rug presents a yellow-flash field set against bold accents of velvet red and indigo blue. The design centers on the classic Facharalo prayer niche, framed by a lattice of hooked motifs, stars, and geometric medallions that symbolize protection and spiritual guidance. The composition balances symmetry with subtle variation, giving the rug both structure and life. The borders are layered in red, ivory, and blue, filled with angular vine scrolls and stylized rosettes, creating a rhythm around the prayer field.
