Antique Kazak 4'7" x 6'2" Carpet Antique Kazak carpet; measures approximately 4'7" x 6'2". Kazak carpets are hand-knotted carpets from the area north and west of the Sevan Sea in southwestern Caucasia. The carpets are originally named after the village of Kazak, where they were manufactured before 1925, and they are the most well-known and appreciated ones of the Caucasian carpets. They are characterized from their long pile and sometimes up to eight weft threads between the rows of knots. The relatively loose knotted carpets have a pile of wool of high quality, which gives them good durability. They are mostly knotted in Dozar-size (approximately 200 x 120 cm) and are often evidently wide in comparison to the length. The colors are strong and the patterns are large and distinctive.
