It is usually woven in two pieces joined at the middle, with a design composed of squarish compartments, usually in horizonal rows of two per panel. Within the squares are large backward S-shaped figures, representing dragons, filled with smaller Z-shaped figures. Often the field colours of the larger figures alternate from one row to the next. There is a narrow border, at times of reciprocal trefoils. Verné rugs are thought to have been woven around the town of Jebrail (Dzhebrail) in the Karabagh district of southern Azerbaijan. See less
