Nahavand or Nehavend is a Persian village near the city of Hamedan in north-western Iran. The Nehavend tribal rugs produced by the semi-nomadic weavers are usually mid-sized because of the very simple looms that are used for Nehavends. They are single wefted, Turkish knotted rugs with nomadic, geometric patterns, and a coloration of bright orange, rusty reds, salmon, and dark blue. Navahand rugs are famous for their thick, shiny pile. |
