Ardibil Rugs—A Beautiful Painting on the Fabrics…

Ardibil rugs are a native to the province of Ardibil located in northwestern Iran. Located at the distance of 639 km from Tehran, Ardibil features a significant history of Persian rugs weaving.

The manufacturing of Persian carpets was on zenith during the 16th and 17th century in the region. The word Ardibil has been defined by the Avesta, the holy book of Zoroastrians, as a tall holy place.

The weavers use Azerbaijani knots in these rugs. The rug features the motifs that are identical to those of Caucasian rugs. However, it has more motifs and objects on the borders. The rug has a lighter color while the patterns are geometric with medallions layouts.

Herati or Mahi is the most popular design found on Ardibil rugs which feature a diamond medallion and small fish throughout. 

However, some modern rugs feature bold geometric patterns and have added colors like turquoise and purple as the replacement of traditional colors like green, blue, ivory and pink.

The warp is generally made from cotton, while the weft can be cotton or wool. Some fine Ardibil rugs feature silk. To enhance the features of the rug, sometimes silk is integrated with the woolen pile. Some of the common forms of Ardibil rugs are Sheikh Safi, Mir, Shah Abbasi, and Sarabi.
