General information
NameGeometric
Original nameهندسی
Origin Iran


Geometric Designs that are rectilinear, stepped, or angular. Geometric designs are often dictated by coarsely knotted rugs that make it difficult to represent smoothly curving lines in a design and by the naive pictorial tastes of the weavers. The designs of village and tribal rugs are sometimes geometric interpretations of finely woven, curvilinear, urban designs.[1]
