Anotations

Scope note:

Rugs woven within a tribe or group, typically woven by nomadic or pastoral people for their personal use rather than for commercial purposes. They are characterized by the use of traditional geometric motifs, a lower knot count than the tightly woven rugs produced in urban centers, and often use of a wool foundation with plant based dyes and hand-spun wool thread; they were originally woven on wooden looms that could be dismantled for traveling and reassembled.
