THE Gazakh-Borchaly Group
of Azerb IjanI Carpets
The Gazakh-Borchaly carpet group includes very delicate
and multi-colored carpets that carry ancient world traditions,
portray creative development, and hold an honorable place
among the pearls of world art. The Gazakh-Borchaly carpet
group includes carpets made in the villages of present-day
Gazakh, Agstafa, Tovuz, and Borchaly (including Kharayazi
and Bashkechid). In addition to the cultural and economic
factors that link these regions, their carpet weaving techniques
and patterns are similar, logically grouping these carpets.
