This design is inspired by the Bergamo rugs, woven in
western Turkey, north of Izmir. This is the site of the ancient Greek
kingdom of Pergamum, which flourished in the 2nd and 3rd centuries BC. The
original carpet is woven from wool with classic terra cotta and deep blue
colors derived from locally made vegetable dyes.
This stunning design is reproduced by license from Arthur T. Gregorian
Oriental Rugs located "A little part of Persia in Newton Lower Falls,
Massachusetts".
