"Aghajly" (Azerbaijani: Ağaclı) - Azerbaijani carpets belonging to the Tabriz type.[1][2][3] These carpets got their name not from the place of their production, but in accordance with their composition. Thus, the composition of the middle field of these carpets mainly consists of one or more trees and bushes and, in rare cases, of a group of trees intended to represent a garden or forest. The trees are represented differently. The spring or autumn trees are usually in bloom or with fruits (pomegranates, apples), and sometimes these are cypress, willow, weeping willow and other ornamental trees.[4]
In the Azerbaijan National Carpet Museum from Baku, the Aghajly carpet of the 19th century, and those by Latif Karimov (1965, 1974) are exhibited. The Aghajly carpet, also made by Kerimov in 1953, is kept in the Azerbaijan National Museum of Art (Baku).
