Abstract

A carpet called in the village of Stoianovca "pravo i soliucheano" woven with woolen threads, the ornament is formed by bands in a predominant color range of red and green with a black background color. The bands alternate with an ornament of flowers, which rather resemble peonies, red and green colors are also combined in this part. This carpet was woven until 1970 by M. Karadjova, the old owner of the old house. Today the carpet hangs on the wall in the hayata - the central room of the old house, which consists of 3 rooms - the "big house", the "hayat" and the "sobichka" or the "small house".
