essential part of their culture, as it’s one of the crafts that they can use to generate
income for their tribes. And it also plays an artistic role as well, showcasing the
talents of the tribe to a wider audience. Each tribe has their own unique styles,
traditions and techniques that are cherished and passed on from generation to
generation. Tribes often associated with weaving rugs and tapestries are Turkmen,
Shiraz, Lori, Afshar and Kashghai.
