Studies of antique Caucasian rugs of the recent years, combined with ethnographic and historical research, led to a detailed classification of these unique artifacts of great importance.
Based of the study of materials, weaving techniques, patters and motifs, several schools of rugs have been distinguished :
1. Kuba school
2. Baku or Absheron school
3. Shirvan school
4. Genje school
5. Kazak school
6. Karabakh school
(you can ‘click’ on a selected school to find out more)
These schools of Caucasian rugs are defined by geography, weaving techniques, material including wool and dyes, design, pattern and principal features
