Description
Fine old Tuyserkan (Tourserkan) from one of the Northwest Persian Hamadan mountain villages with the well known anchored Central medallion woven with gorgeous natural denim blue, apricot, and deepest indigo to offset the design. The major inner border repeats the color scheme of apricot mahi (or fish) with indigo blue fins swimming around the border of the rug. The weaver used the mountain grazed sheep wool, heavy in mineral contents from the mountain water. This results in wool of a higher grade and a longer staple.
