ITEM DESCRIPTION This Premium Hand knotted Zanjan area rug is a true one-of-a-kind work of art   Origin: Iran Style: Zanjan The northern province of  Zanjan is very rich in history.  There are some strong traces of Turkish and Kurdish influence seen in these nomadic and/or semi-nomadic people,  but they are mostly of Persian origin.  Descendants of the Mongolians (led by Ghengis Khan) who invaded the country in the 13th century, Turkish and Mogul tribes have been living in this region for many centuries.  The province of Zanjan has a high Kurdish population.  These peaceful people are documented to have been weaving rugs for over 3,000 years.  They have a migratory lifestyle and both sexes practice rug weaving.  In some cases, the rug weaving is the family's main source of income and these nomads continue to weave even in the harshest conditions.
