Yagkush & Sherwan

Our Sherwan rugs are made in Afghanistan / northern Pakistan in a similar construction to typical Bokhara only with shorter pile - Super Sherwan are more densly knotted pieces with stronger cotton foundation. These modern pieces are based on the traditional Shirvan rugs from the important central eastern Caucasian region of that name known for its fine antique rugs. Size of rugs is usually small with designs including prayer formats, geometric medallions and all-over boteh motifs.

Yagkush rugs are made in Afghanistan / northern Pakistan border region, based on traditional 19th/20th century Caucasian Kazak carpet designs.
