Uşak is a city located in the center of Turkey. During the pre-industrial period, Uşak was already an important center of production and export, especially carpets. Uşak carpets were also called Holbein carpets in reference to the 16th century painter Hans Holbein the Younger, who detailed them in their paintings, reflecting their popularity in the European market. Although carpet designs have changed since then, it is still a major industry that makes the name of the city have relevance in the market for handmade carpets.
These carpets are characterized by very special designs and compositions, which are considered one of the best carpets for their quality of wool and their dyes. The famous traditional double knot Turkish technique, like other Turkish carpets gives a special effect that from every angle of the carpet, the colors are perceived in different ways.
