Meshkabad rugs are hand-woven by semi-nomadic people living in the village of Meshkabad, near Arak in north-western Iran. The central fields usually have a warm floral-patterned medallion, and the colors are very warm and lively. However, geometric patterns are sometimes used, and many other colors besides red can be found. Obvious traces of Kurdish origins are evident in these rugs.Lua error: Cannot create process: proc_open(): fork failed - Cannot allocate memory
