This is a small village in the Turkish speaking north western province of Azerbaijan. Like all rugs from the area, the designs are very geometrical. The weaving is firm and regular, the quality of the wool is excellent and the warps and wefts are generally cotton. Many small sizes are produced and the larger sizes tend to be runners. The rather bold striking designs may originally have had a tribal significance which is now lost. Some of the designs resemble crabs, insects and leaves. Natural dyes are largely used.
