Caucasian
Azerbaijani rugs.
Over

informational and educational articles, essays,
and illustrations
to inspire you. Research is
continuously being done and will be presented to you to bring out the most
objective information about the Caucasian rugs which has been mostly
misused and misunderstood in the history, intentionally or unintentionally
by different sources. ...artistic expression, beauty, rarity and cultural importance...that is what makes our rugs unique.
Originality: We are
dealing only with
origin al Caucasian rugs. All our Caucasian rugs and carpets, with various designs, are
woven in Azerbaijan (Kazak rugs, Kuba rugs, Shirvan rugs, Baku rugs,
Tabriz rugs, Ardabil rugs, Ganja rugs, Karabakh rugs, Shusha rugs, Derbend
rugs, Talish rugs) 95% of Caucasian named rugs are Azerbaijan rugs.
Therefore, if
you care about originality be ware of the rugs with Caucasian designs that
are made in other countries such as Pakistan, Afghanistan, India and
China, as most of them were
duplicated in a haphazard fashion and do not represent their origins in
design elements and workmanship. Authenticity: All our Caucasian rugs are certified with authenticity from The State Museum of Azerbaijan Carpet and Applied Art Rarity: Our Caucasian rugs are not the result of mass production! Each Caucasian rug is unique and one of a kind. Ninety-five percent of all oriental rugs and carpets made today are woven with inexpensive processed wool which has been spun into yarn by machine, and then colored with modern synthetic dyes. The result is a rug which appears precise and lifeless with no variation in design, texture, or coloration. This is how most modern oriental rugs are made.
Affordability: We
offer our collection of exceptional Caucasian carpets at competitive
prices. |
