Koliai Brown 49064

People in Kurdistan are known as good carpet weavers. The rugs are tightly knotted with high pile and with a saturated color scale. Older Koliai rugs are knotted on a woolen warp, while younger ones have a cotton warp, both with two wefts between the rows of knots. Their designs usually feature large, geometric figures in muted colors. A pattern with small diagonally placed squares is also common. The execution is strong, the mats are heavy and compact and have good wear resistance.
