Caucasian rug inscribed in three places (hard for ne to read) with a graphic in upper left field, of hand with hammer sickle in the palm (no translation needed) “Stop Communism” dated 1929. Inscribed rugs have long been used to memorialize an event in the lives of the weaver or the patron who asked for such a piece. a curious bit of history that is relevant today as it was when woven.
