Zeikhur On account of stylistic idiosyncracies and technical features, such
rare Kuba carpets, with the Khirdaghyd design on a yellow ground and a

published examples resemble each other so closely that a common origin in a
closely defined area can be considered a certainty. – Replaced selvedges,
several restored areas.
