A former nomadic Turkish-speaking population that lives partly in southern Iran and transhumance in the summer to mountain pastures south and west of Kirman. These weavers produced excellent carpets as well as kilims which were sold in Shahr-e Babak, Saidadad and the surrounding area. Nomadic art completely disappeared today. Carpet that still has its original kilim finish. Very good condition for a 19th century carpet. The vast majority of AFSHARS live in northern Iran to the east of the Confederation territories.
