Kazak and Guenje rugs
KAZAK
Made by the Cossack tribes who live near Mount Ararat where Noah finally made his landfall, and where Russia, Turkey and Persia meet. These are the most striking of all Caucasian rugs.
They have a long pile, a rather coarse weave, and an extraordinary luster. They have the strongest colors, and the biggest, boldest figures.
GUENJE
Similar to the Kazak, with the same type of design and color, but often coarser and cruder.
