Eqlid اقلید

Eqlid (Iqlid) is a town in the Zagros Mountains of northern Fars, in the cold upland zone that medieval geographers called the sardsir. It belonged to the Abadeh district, for which Iranica lists carpet and rug weaving among the notable crafts, and is now the centre of its own county. Our Qashqai Eqlid rug was woven in its district.
