Luri لری
Luri (Lori) weaving is the work of the Lurs, who live in the Zagros from Lorestan through the Bakhtiari country to Fars. They weave gabbehs, kilims and bags. Many motifs in Luri flatweaves and pile rugs, such as offset rows of cypress trees, also appear in Bakhtiari work, so attribution by motif alone is unreliable.
