A typical Navajo rug has approximately 30 wefts to the linear inch. The finer pieces frequently have upwards of 80. When a textile has 80 or more wefts per inch, it is considered a tapestry, not a rug. The most famous weaver of these textiles was Daisy Taugelchee (1909-1990), who wove upwards of 115 wefts per inch, which created the most finely woven Navajo tapestries anywhere.
The weavers preferred to use natural wool from their sheep rather than the commercially produced wool used by other Navajo weavers.
A dynamic and exciting composition, this gorgeous late 19th century Bidjar runner from the 1880s showcases some of the finer qualities exhibited by the Persian iron rug of Iran.

Antique Persian Heriz rug, Persia, circa 1920. This remarkable and artistic antique rug, showcases an ornate, multicolored central design. At the heart of the antique Persian Heriz Serapi rug, a many-petaled flower is surrounded by a 12-pointed stellar shape in light and dark blue. Angular stylized flowers stud the navy form and are echoed across the red medallion that encases it. Four ornaments decorate the corners of the medallion, and floral adornments nestle within each tip. A rust red field, brimming with botanical decorations, extends the medallion’s shape.

Light salmon with blue background color and rose border. Woven in the rugged mountains of Northwest Persia, Serapi rugs are a distinct Heriz region style, with finer knotting and more large-scale spaciously placed antique carpet designs than other rugs from this area. Persian carpets had to be taken by their weavers to Serab, 30 miles distant, to be marketed. “Serapi” is not a place or tribal name, rather it is a market term derived from “Serab-i,” meaning “of Serab.” The bold geometric designs are probably connected to the tribal Caucasian traditions across the Aras River to the north.
