Step into history with the beautiful Kars rug, renowned since ancient times! These unique creations were once shipped overseas, especially to Germany, where their distinctive patterns earned them fame as “Kars Rugs” everywhere they were spotted!
Among locals, a popular nickname for these rugs is the "dragon" pattern. Why? Because their octagonal lakes and medallions resemble the fierce head of a dragon! Those curved patterns around the octagons? They’ve earned the charming title of "kuyrum-lu," showcasing the creativity of the weavers!
Pattern & Colors: This rug features a stunning medallion design embellished with stylized plant, bird, and dragon motifs, along with geometric patterns like hooks, arrows, and ram horns.
Expect a vibrant color palette, including fiery reds, deep blues, lush greens, sunny yellows, earthy browns, and natural shades sourced directly from sheep’s fleece (think soft blacks, browns, greys, and creams)!
