The city of Mechkabad, very important in the 19th century, was a large center of carpet production, today it is no longer even mentioned on maps. A red medallion placed on a blue field, cut out in ivory on the sides and corners are the design found on these rugs, while using other colors. These pieces are always abundantly decorated with flowers and the flower design of the medallion is often found in the spandrels.
