The kilims are large tapestry-woven textiles. The visually stunning and colorful Anatolian kilims communicate the aesthetic choices of the village and nomadic women who created them.

    Oriental Rugs from Persia, Afghanistan, Turkey

    Modified By The Rug Guru Oriental Rugs From Persia, Afghanistan, Turkey ... Turkmen Rugs Geography West Turkestan is an area of some 700,000 square kilometres with the Caspian Sea to the west, the Mangyshlak Peninsula to the northeast and the Kapet-Dagh Mountains and the outskirts of the Hindukush forming a semicircle to the south. West of what since 1924 has been the border of the Soviet Socialist Republic of Turkmenistan are Afghanistan and the Iranian province of Khorassan. At the eastern side is the huge Chinese province of Xinjiang (Sinkiang). Usually referred to in the context of weaving literature as East Turkestan. Thus viewed in simple geographic terms, it is easier to understand the nature of this Eurasian basin, part of the ancient world's dry belt. To the western side of the region is the Karakum desert and to the east, between the Amu- Darya and Syr-Darya rivers, is the Kyzylkum desert. To the south, that there was earlier the Soviet Socialist Republic of Uzbekistan, now this independent state, are the important trading centres of Bukhara and Samarkand. The latter having been a major post along the ancient Silk Road, which ran from China through East Turkestan and on westwards, via Tashkent in Uzbekistan, Mary (Merv) in Turkmenistan and Khorasan. Many different ethnic groups have occupied this region for millennia and among those associated with weaving, in addition to the Turkmen's themselves, are the Uzbeks, Karakalpaks and Kirgiz. Historical Research Serious research into the weaving culture of the Turkmen's must, of course, encompass more than aesthetic appreciation.

It was constructed in the Qajar Dynasty in 1876 by Lord Mirza Hasan Ali Nasir al Mulk. The mosque is known for its extensive use in colored glass in its façade. The construction of the mosque uses other traditional structural elements as well such as “panj kasehi” (five concaves). These days, the mosque is more of a tourist attraction than a place for prayer. Like all mosques in Iran, you must remove your shoes before entering and the floor is lined with Persian rugs from wall to wall.

    Identification Manual

    ORIENTAL & FINE AREA RUG CLEANING IDENTIFICATION MANUAL “TRY NOT TO BECOME A MAN OF SUCCESS, BUT RATHER A MAN OF VALUE.” – ALBERT EINSTEIN RUG TYPES AND CONSTRUCTION The construction of any hand-woven or machine-woven rug begins with the interlacing of warp (vertical) and weft (horizontal) yarns, which are known as the foundation. This creates the basic structure of the rug, to which the pile yarns may be added with hand knotting or mechanical insertion. Foundation yarns used in rugs are: wool, silk, cotton, jute, polyester and polypropylene. Foundation yarns include: Warp – cotton, wool, silk, linen, polyester, slit-film polypropylene. Weft – cotton, wool, silk, jute, spun polypropylene. Stuffer – cotton (one or several).

    The Berlin Dragon-Phoenix Carpet and Its Probable

Portable AND ITS PROBABLE ARMENIAN ORIGIN objects–painting, manuscripts, ceramics, metalwork, and of course textiles, including carpets, present the obvious problems of place, date, and attribution. Dickran Kouymjian (Haig Berberian Professor of Armenian Studies, Emeritus, Inscriptions are of great help in determining provenance for such mobile objects, but artists did California State University, Fresno & Paris) not always leave their mark. Early medieval European art was ofen intentionally anonymous. Rugs and carpets were very rarely inscribed, thus there is the thorny and constant problem of date Te history of Armenian carpet weaving is still a fragmented discourse known mostly within and provenance. Tere is a fairly large group of later Islamic rugs, mostly in the Top Kapi Palace Armenian circles. Many of its basic facts are or have been challenged, or simply rejected, by collection, with important religious inscriptions, (fg. 1) but these are probably early nineteenth determined nationalistic policies of neighboring political authorities, foremost among them the century rugs, suggested by some to have been manufactured in Hereke in an archaizing style16; there Republic of Azerbaijan and more subtly, but for a longer time, Turkey: for instance my copy of are also many Persian rugs with inscriptions. Perhaps the largest body of carpets with inscriptions is the English version of Şerare Yetkin‘s useful two volume Early Caucasian Carpets in Turkey of Armenian.17 Tis is not an accidental phenomenon.
