Gasimushaghi carpets (Azerbaijani: Qasımuşağı xalçaları) are Azerbaijani pile carpets of the Karabakh school of the Jabrayil group.[1][2]
Carpets
[edit]Gasimushaghi carpets developed in a village called Gasimushaghi obasi and in Şamkənd, Ərikli, Kürdhacı, Chorman and Shalva villages.[1]
Some centuries ago, ornaments of the “Gasimushaghi carpets” were used in embroidery and called “Gasimushaghi embroideries”.[3] Then these embroidery ornaments were used in Gasimushaghi carpets and that is why these carpets are also called “Embroidery carpets”.[4]
Structure and technical features
[edit]
Dimensions of Gasimushagi carpets are generally from 200x120 to 230x160, and sometimes larger. The density of the knots varies from 30x30 to 40x40 (from 90000 to 160000 knots in a sq.meter).[5] The height of the wool is 7–10 mm.[6]
