Kazaks are a type of Armenian rug that was historically woven in the southern portion of the Caucasus region of the Middle East. The production of rugs in that region is limited to the villages practicing traditional weaving, therefore this beautiful design has been reproduced in the Varanasi province of India, by the Bhadohi village weavers. Local elements of design and construction bring a unique beauty to the ancient patterns that the weavers create. The process of making a rug includes cleaning, washing, and dyeing the wool which is sourced from local villages. Herat Oriental works with over 2,000 village weavers to create beautiful, authentic, handmade rugs. The majority of the weavers are women, who live in the villages of Afghanistan, Pakistan, Persia, and India. As we grow, we are able to create more jobs for female weavers who otherwise would not have the opportunity to do so. The community also thrives from rug weaving as the local farmers benefit from wool sales, and the local artisans create natural and vegetable dyes for the weavers to use in their designs. Due to the handmade nature of our rugs, the size may vary from the advertised by 3-4 inches. Regular vacuuming and annual professional cleaning will keep your rug looking new for years to come.

Balouchi rug, floor covering woven by the Balouch people living in Afghanistan and eastern Iran. The patterns in these rugs are highly varied, many consisting of repeated motifs, diagonally arranged across the field. Some present a maze of intricate latch-hooked forms. Prayer rugs, with a simple rectangular arch-head design at one end (to indicate the direction of the holy city Mecca), are common. Normally, the field of these prayer rugs is filled with the leaves and stems of a highly stylized tree, and geometric small plants appear in the spandrels. Frequently, the Balouchi rugs have long aprons at both ends, decorated with stripes and bands of brocading. The color scheme of older rugs is a dark combination of reds, browns, and blues with touches of white. Many pieces also make use of varying tan shades, either of camel hair or material dyed to resemble it. Balouchi rugs are usually all wool, but their material may also include goat and camel hair, cotton for whites, and in some cases a few knots of silk. The knotting is customarily asymmetrical. The rugs vary greatly in quality, the better ones usually being ascribed to the Khorasan province of Iran. Balouchi rugs are frequently classed with the products of the Turkmen but show little relationship to them.
