History of Kazak/ Caucasian Rugs Caucasian rugs

come from mountains region between the Black Sea and Caspian Sea. In 1813 it was conquered by Russians before it belonged to Persia. In the course of time many different people have settled in the caucuses; Turkoman tribe from Central Asia, Turks, Persians and Armenians. Part of the effect has been the region to many different tribes and tongues. Yet in spite of this, Caucasian rugs have many features in common, whether they were made north or south of the mountains which divides the region to preserve its traditional patterns and colors. The Turkish knot (Ghiordes knots) is used everywhere, and the rugs are usually knotted on a foundation of wool rarely of cotton. The dominate colors in Caucasian rugs are red, blue, yellow green and ivory, some brown is also used. The patterns have a definite geometrical tendency. The main features of the design from coherent pattern while the minor pattern has no connection with one another. Stars, squares and swastikas are from large part of decoration. It is not unusual to come across flowers, animals or human beings. These are also geometric in design very angular and hard to identify.
