About Azerbaijani Quba Carpet
The Quba and Shirvan knotted-pile carpets of pre-1900 Azerbaijan are built on a deep madder-red wool field — a saturated knotted ground that carries stepped diamond medallions, indigo botehs, and ivory latch-hook borders. Every color is a natural dye: madder-root red, indigo blue, undyed ivory wool, weld gold, and forest green, all held together by dark outlining.
This design system translates that woven density into the screen. The page itself is the dark madder field — never cream — and ornament is structure: stepped medallions, paisley botehs, and geometric borders organize every surface around a dominant red ground.
