Type: Caucasion Rugs,
Karabagh
Use:
QARABAGH COVER
JBOC Comments: John Wertime
described a very similar piece as coming from the Jebrail district of
Karabagh. He indicated that these were a specialty of that district.
See Wright,
Richard. Wertime, John. Caucasian Carpets and Covers pages
103 - 105 and plate XVIII. I think the description "ZILEH EMBROIDERED
FLATWEAVE" is a Verni rather then a Zileh and is woven rather than
embroidered.
