- Carpet weaving is one of the most ancient kinds of arts and crafts of Azerbaijan . The archeological data gathered on the territory of Azerbaijan as well as the literature pieces testify that carpet weaving art of Azerbaijan originated in extreme antiquity.
Carpets and carpet related items made in Azerbaijan have been repeatedly eulogized in many historical books, classical literature and folklore.
An Azerbaijani carpet is impossible to describe. You must see it with your own eyes: it has incorporated the entire coloring of Azerbaijan nature - blue of the sky and greens of woods, deep shadows on of mountains slopes and whiteness of snow-capped peaks.

Production of carpets weaved with gold and silver threads and decorated with jewels acquired traditional character in the 16th - 17th centuries. Azerbaijani silk carpets were celebrated in "Kitabi Dede Korkud" epos.
