Description

Antique Azerbaijan runner rug handwoven from the finest sheep’s wool and colored with all-natural vegetable dyes that are safe for humans and pets. It’s a traditional Azerbaijani design featuring mixed floral and botanical details over a deep red field. It resembles a tribal motif which makes it a beautiful piece for decorating contemporary and rustic spaces. It has a dimension of 3’2” x 14’2” which is ideal for bedrooms, living areas, reading nooks and covered patios.

Azerbaijani rugs are among the most prominent of Caucasian carpets and were proclaimed as a ‘Masterpiece of Intangible Heritage’ by UNESCO in 2010. As many countries and regions with harsh climates, Azerbaijan carpet weaving started out as a cottage industry with most rugs created for personal use. The fine quality and beautiful Azerbaijan patterns soon became a source of national pride as the country became one of the major rug weaving centers in the world.
