Description
Summary

The rugs Kazak are being woven by Semi-Nomads, who live on the mountains in the center of Caucasus. Their main colours are red, blue, yellow, green and ecru. Their motifs are geometric. Stars, squares and cross are their common motifs, with medallion or repeated motifs. Their pile and warp is woolen and they have a quiet thin weaving.

The Caucasian rugs are being woven in the regions on the mountains between the Black and the Caspian Sea. In these regions live many different tribes with different languages, such as Persians, Turkmens, Turks and Armenians. Despite the different tribes in Caucasus, the rugs that they weave have many things in common as far as the weaving, their motifs and their materials are concerned. The difficult accessibility of some regions in Caucasus has influenced the fabricants of handmade rugs so that they still use the traditional motifs without any exterior influences. Main colours of the rugs are red, blue, yellow, green and ecru. Their motifs are geometrical. Stars, squares and cross are some of their main motifs. Sometimes they weave human or animal geometrical figures and flowers in geometrical designs.

All CarpetU2 carpets are subject to cleaning with high quality antibacterial and moth protection products according to Persian law.
