Rug-weaving area is a large group of villages, Karja being its center with a very distinctive style of their own. Their distinctive geometric medallion easily identifies these rugs. These small medallions alternate between latches. Hook motifs are used in large-sized rugs, but sequenced in rows to fill the field. More recently, room size rugs have been woven with a rectilinear medallion design similar to that of Heriz. The background color is usually madder red, with navy blue used for main border, but occasionally the back-ground colors are beige and navy blue. The wool used for the pile is of excellent-quality local wool. Counterparts and their designs are more intricate. Also, there are other features which make Karaja easy to recognize for instance, it is one of the few sources of single weft goods with white cotton warps and blue-gray cotton wets. The selvedge is the usual flat Azerbaijan type. The majority of Karaja rugs were woven in small sizes and runners. Second-hand karaja rugs are widely available both new and old Karaja rugs are reasonably priced and of good value.
