Chi Chi rugs have historically represented one of the most sought after typologies of Caucasian village rugs. These are invariably decorated by a repeat pattern of small hooked motifs and defined by a border consisting of a continuous diagonal and rosette pattern. The mint condition allows us to fully appreciate the visual as well as the tactile quality of this Caucasian masterpiece.
