Shirvan (East Caucasian textile styles, Caucasian textile styles, ... Styles and Periods (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Style of textiles, particularly short-napped rugs or carpets, from the region of Shirvan, Azerbaijan in the southeastern Caucasus. With the exception of a group of rugs woven in the vicinity of Baku, most Shirvan rugs are small, with examples from the southern part of the area around the town of Saliani more likely to be in the long, narrow format described in the West as runners. The area around Maraza has produced many prayer rugs, including a well-known type with boteh (leaf-shaped) figures on a blue field. Most small Shirvan rugs are not specifically identifiable as to village source, as they share a range of geometric field designs and borders. They are generally less finely woven than rugs from farther north in the Kuba district, although they are finer than the Kazakh-type rugs made in western Azerbaijan. Shirvan rugs are usually all wool, but some may show cotton wefts and cotton edges.

Additional Notes: |
|
| Chinese (traditional) ..... 指製於高加索東南方，亞塞拜然希爾凡地區的短絨毛地毯等織品風格。除了巴庫附近的地毯之外，希爾凡地毯大多為小型，沙里阿尼鎮以南的樣式則較為狹長，西方人稱之為「走廊地毯」。馬拉札周圍地區則生產許多跪毯，樣式包括著名的藍底波堤(boteh)葉子形狀圖案。小的希爾凡地毯大多皆具幾何底圖的設計與邊緣，因而較難辨別來源，編織細緻度不如北邊庫巴地區的地毯，但較亞塞拜然西部的哈薩克地毯細緻。希爾凡地毯多半為全羊毛編織，但有些有棉織緯線與邊緣。 |
