Guide to Antique Shirvan Rugs


Guide to Antique Shirvan Rugs


Shirvan Rugs are the rugs of the Azeri people. The name comes from the Shirvan Khanate which was the name of the Central Eastern lowlands of present day Azerbaijan under Persian Rule. After the Russians seized Shirvan the area kept its name for its rugs.
Shirvan rugs arenotable from this construction. They are well made even rugs with a flat back and two cord white selvages. I explore them in my Guide to Antique Shirvan Rugs
