Tribal Art Heritage | The Djoharian Collection
Antique Karaja Rug – Geometric Tribal Masterpiece

"A refined example of Azerbaijan border artistry, blending the boldness of Heriz design with a finer, elegant weave."

The village of Karaja, nestled in the rugged highlands near the Turkish and Azerbaijan borders, is a hidden gem for collectors of geometric Persian rugs. While closely related to the famous carpets of Heriz, Karaja weavings are distinguished by their thinner handle and a significantly finer knotting technique. This antique masterpiece, aged approximately 60 years, perfectly captures the stylistic influence of the region's grand architectural motifs translated into a soulful, tribal language.

Measuring 195 x 145 cm (6.4 x 4.8 ft), this rug is crafted from high-quality wool on a stable cotton foundation. Its vibrant palette is achieved through the use of traditional vegetable dyes, which have matured beautifully over the decades. In excellent condition with a full pile, this Karaja rug is a resilient and decorative investment that anchors both modern and traditional interiors with timeless character.
