From James Tufenkian: A tribal Armenian Kazak weave rug. The Bordjalu rugs feature a simpler design with particular use of latch hooks in large scale motifs. Bordjalu is a bold, archetypal design executed in vibrant colors of madder red, olive green, deep navy blue, light sky blue, soft yellow and ivory. This rug is among the most distinctive Armenian carpet designs, incorporating deeply meaningful symbols into the bright and energetic palettes. This Bordjajlu rug is hand knotted of 100% Armenian wool on a wool foundation and adorned in wool fringe. Historically the Bordjalou rugs were woven in a district just south of Tiflis, an area known for producing the heaviest and most coarsely woven Kazaks. The Tufenkian Kazak rugs however all have a pile height around a third of an inch. This piece measures 05 x 07.This item has been discontinued and only the size(s) listed here are available.

About RugStudio Rug Studio is the e-commerce division of Oriental Rug Gallery, L.P., a fourth-generation family-owned company based in San Antonio, Texas. For nearly 100 years, our family has built a trusted reputation in rug manufacturing, importing, wholesaling, and retailing - always rooted in quality, value, and service. Our story began in 1930 with founder Kaloust Aijian, an Armenian Genocide survivor who fled his village of Hadjin and came to America by way of France, arriving through New York Harbor. With deep knowledge of fine rugs and a relentless work ethic, he built a respected business founded on craftsmanship, integrity, and personal service. Kaloust first operated a rug boutique inside D.H. Holmes in New Orleans before relocating in 1946 to San Antonio, where he established Oriental Rug Gallery inside Joske's downtown store - laying the foundation for decades of growth in Texas. Today, led by Kaloust's grandchildren and great-grandchildren, we continue that legacy online through Rug Studio, helping customers nationwide find the perfect rug - from handmade heirlooms and traditional Orientals to modern designs for today's interiors.
