NAMAD CARPETS

Felted carpets of Persia and India. Produced in single colours or ornamented with inlaid work with coloured felt in floral or geometric design. Those made at Tabriz are ornamented with coloured wools felted into them in regular arabesque designs. The wool is spread out evenly on a Kamrii and then moistened with gum and rolled backwards and forwards -with a wooden roller until the layer of wool is thoroughly felted.
