3 TRADITIONS, CRAFTS AND ETHNOGRAPHY CARPET MAKING Parts of the distinctive charm of the Bulgarian culture are its beautiful carpets and rugs, which decorated the Bulgarian homes in the past. The typical bright and cheerful colors and patterns create a unique and impressive atmosphere and comfort. The technology for fabric making was known in our country since ancient times - from the 6th - 5th century BC, and according to scientists, carpet weaving began in the 1st century BC. There are two techniques for ornamentation of decorative fabrics - smooth and tied. The oldest record of textile carpet ornaments in Bulgaria dates back to the late eleventh century. In Bulgaria the carpet making reached its zenith during the Revival Age (18th - 19th century). Some of the famous carpet-making centers of that time were Gabrovo, Kotel, Sliven, Chiprovtsi, Samokov, Panagyurishte, etc. The two main urban centers, however, were the towns of Kotel and Chiprovtsi. The techniques for carpet making bear their names - Kotel and Chiprovtsi techniques. 3

4 4 Bulgarian rugs are doublesided and are weaved on a vertical loom. There are two common ways to form shapes - the Kotel technique is characterized by the formation of open-works (embroidery) on the contour of figures, and the Chiprtsi technique has no open-works.

6 The oldest Kotel carpets were made of fur and are known under the name chols. Later on the craftsmen began using wool, and by the midnineteenth century even cotton was added to the carpet making. The decoration of Kotel carpets is mostly geometric, and later, with the development of the technique, stylized flowers began to appear as well as animals and human figures. In many woven carpets one can see the owner s name, the year of manufacture and the name of the weaver. 6

7 TRADITIONS, CRAFTS AND ETHNOGRAPHY CARPET MAKING Among the most popular colors are indigo-blue, bright blue, blazing red, burgundy, olive and black, but there is always only one dominant color. Very typical for the carpet coloring is the fact that it is achieved by natural dyes, for example the green color is derived from walnut leaves. In Kotel carpet was never an ordinary covering fabric. Even in the richest homes the carpets were only used to cover the floor of the room, reserved for family celebrations or for guests. 7

8 8 Most typical of the Kotel weaved images of objects carpets are the highly stylized from the everyday life into the stars with hooks - the curly carpets, such as wine vessels, stars. The craftsmen also shepherd s crooks, etc.

11 TRADITIONS, CRAFTS AND ETHNOGRAPHY CARPET MAKING More about the Kotel technique for carpet making can be learned from the exhibition of Old Kotel Carpets and Fabrics at the Galatan School. The Galatan school was built in The exhibition traces the overall development of the carpet weaving tradition in Kotel - from the rug, through the classical Kotel carpet, to the contemporary models of weaved carpets. The exhibited carpets date back to the 18th - 19th century. The second floor of the building presents an exhibition of unique fabrics in religious and historical themes. 11

12 The Chiprovtsi carpets are made of pure wool and cotton. These carpets are known for their small geometric motifs based on triangular forms. The carpets are made with a smooth carpet texture with two faces with edges (one or more) and a main part. For the coloring of the Chiprovtsi carpets are used natural dyes as well. The most typical colors are indigo blue, brown, ocher and green. 12

13 TRADITIONS, CRAFTS AND ETHNOGRAPHY CARPET MAKING More about the development of weaving and the textile industry as a whole can be learned in Sliven. In 1836 there was established the first factory in Bulgaria, which was a textile factory. Its founder was the Bulgarian entrepreneur Dobri Zhelyazkov, who studied textile machinery production in Ukraine, then returned to Bulgaria and with the permission of the Ottoman authorities he built the first textile factory in Bulgaria. 13

14 14 Nowadays the only textile museum of its kind, which tells the history of textile production from antiquity to the present day, is located in Sliven. In the museum visitors can see many interesting exhibits, including vertical and horizontal looms, spinning tools, mechanical weaving machines, etc. One of the most valuable exhibits is a jacquard loom, which is part of the revolutionary processes in the technology of fabric production.

15 TRADITIONS, CRAFTS AND ETHNOGRAPHY CARPET MAKING Special attention is paid to the work of Dobri Zhelyazkov. The tradition of carpet-weaving and manufacturing has continued in Bulgaria to the present day. Masters in these two Bulgarian towns - Kotel and Chiprovtsi - continue making Chiprovtsi and Kotel carpets in the traditional technology. 15
