Handmade rugs from East Azerbaijan, specifically from Tabriz, are considered some of the finest and most luxurious rugs in the world. The wool and silk used for these rugs are sourced locally and are carefully washed, carded, spun, and dyed using natural plant-based dyes to create a wide range of colors. One of the most distinctive features of handmade Tabriz rugs is the intricate designs that adorn them. Nature often inspires these designs, which feature delicate floral patterns, intricate arabesque motifs, and bold geometric motifs.
