This is a wonderful example very close
to a rug that Wright
and Wertime identify as Lezghi
or possibly Tabasar. Wright,
Richard. Wertime, John. Caucasian Carpets and
Covers.Detail page 51, plate III page 58. Tabasar is a
dialect of Lezghi so I am placeing the two together as
divisions of one fairly hetrogeneous group.
The primary difference between this one and the Wright and Wertime example is that tis one
has blue octagons in the medallions and theirs has
alternating blue and white. Wright and Wertime describe theirs as having
dovetail tapistry weave and eccentric wefts and as being
related structurally to the Dums.
