This type of carpet is in a category of its own.
It is one of the most unusual pieces available, primarily because three weaving techniques are combined to produce one carpet. Various combinations of flatweave, embroidery, and double-knot make up each piece. Bahtiyaris are either made up of wool on wool or wool on cotton. This style originated in Turkey, but is now difficult to find in its original state due to recent imitations being produced. The color is a telltale sign of an imitation product, since Bahtiyari colors are quite distinct and have a character of their own. These pieces were also once used as a form of camel saddles, as is evident by the location of particular techniques. Bahtiyaris are our most popular and uniquepiece. These carpets range in price from $280 up to $2700.
