A-bey Antique Cloud Band Kazak From Jim Allen

Cloudband Kazak Rugs / Khondzoresk Rugs

These rugs were woven by Armenian weavers in the Duchy of Khachen in the town of Khondzoresk. The old dealers felt that Kazak rugs brought better prices than Karabagh rugs so in the trade these became known as Cloudband Kazak rugs.

Khondzoresk was once one of the estates belonging to Dadivank Monastery in Mardagert province, Karabagh. Boxdorfer See also Khndzorek. Alternate spellings include Chondoresk.
