Country of Origin: Persia/Iran Isfahan
JBOC Comments: These rugs began
appearing in the 20th century when the tribes
people of Fars began to settle. They are similar
to but finer than Qashqai rugs and are made on a
cotton foundation. Blue wefts are to be expected.
They believe that blue dyed wefts shrink less
making a better foundation.
