centuries. Their painstaking craftsmanship, enchanting patterns and magical beauty captivate

everyone. They are dreams made incarnate…twisting labyrinths of flowers, mystical animals and ancient symbols.

infused with individuality when a weaver sits down at the loom and creates his own

interpretation of the dictates of history.

delight in their exotic designs, we enrich our lives immeasurably.
