Navy Persian Antique Farahan 3'6'' X 5'3''

Farahan refers to a style of weaving as much as a place of origin, though the name does derive from the village of Shemaka, located in the rug-making center of the Caucasus. Indeed, the Soumak weaving technique is used heavily by tribal weavers of Caucasian rugs, but historically it is also found in tribal regions of Anatolia, Afghanistan, and southern and northwestern Persia.
