Heriz | In the province of Azerbaijan, Heriz lies picturesquely on the edge of the Caspian Sea. Due to the proximity of the border the Heriz rugs are delightfully influenced by their Russian neighbors, namely in the geometrical designs and bold color contrasts. Heriz rugs have long been appreciated by designers worldwide and early examples are sometimes referred to as “Serapi rugs” due to their more primitive execution. | |
| Agra | The city of Agra in India is home to one of the “seven wonders” of the world, The Taj Mahal. The rug and carpet renaissance of the 19th century played an important role in Agra as growing demand for fine decorative rugs and carpets were being produced by European rug manufacturers. The plan to put prisoners to work made Agra a major center for manufacturing rugs and coining the nickname “Jailhouse Agras”. | |
| “Gavin Morton” Arts & Crafts | Inspired by William Morris and the ethos of the Arts & Crafts movement, Morton and company diversified into hand woven carpets blending elements derived from Gothic and Persian designs. | |
