Kazak

A Turkish tribe in the southwestern Caucasus, the Kazaks are famed for the beauty of their rugs, due in large part to the richness of the colors produced by their pure natural dyes. But it is their extraordinary designs that put their handy work at the pinnacle of Caucasian weaving.

Animals, cross and star medallions are often featured in their work, and borders exemplify the free experimentation with geometric forms that characterizes the best of Kazak art.
