Akstafa rugs are made in the Azeri area north of Kazak and into the adjoining areas of Georgia. Akstafa rugs are closer to Shirvan rugs then they are to Kazak since the Akstafa rugs are Azeri and Kazak rugs are woven by Armenians.

Islamic art and Persian Miniature Paintings 

Islamic art and Persian Miniature Paintings: "Visit More Oriental Rug Notes by Barry O'Connell
The Plates of La Miniature En Orient
This is a look at some fine works of Islamic art. Following my tastes it leans more towards sixteenth century Persian Miniature painting. The biggest problem with these is getting good pictures. So I hope you enjoy what I have found so far.

Guide to Bolnisi Bordjalou rugs 

Guide to Bolnisi Bordjalou rugs: "Bolnisi is also known as Jekatrinofeld, Yekatrinofeld, Ljuksemburg(i), Lyuksemburg(i) http://www.library.uu.nl/wesp/populstat/Europe/georgiat.htm
There are a number of distinctive types of rugs attributed to Bordjalu. Bordjalu was a khanate up until 1736 when Nadir Shah lost it to the Kingdom of Georgia. Bordjalu was made up of three districts, Marneuli, Gardabani and Bolnisi.
This group of distinctive latch hook rugs is a large body of distinctive rugs attributed to Bordjalu. I have come to believe that this group is from the Bolnisi district. I came to this by a round about method, We have three well documented anchor rug types in Bordjalu. Gardabani is represented by the Karayazy tpe rug. Of all the rugs Gardabani is least like the Bolnisi group. Then there is the Marneuli/Chobanker group. In there we have the pinwheel Kazaks and the Chobanker."
