В музее Виктории и Альберта в Лондоне в экспозицию в новом Джамиль Холле выставлен гениальный образец азербайджанской суфийской ковроткаческой школы периода Шейха Сафиаддина, преемника Шаха Исмаила Хатаи из династии Сефеви. Ковёр имеет название Ардебильский Ковёр (по названию столицы провинции Восточный Азербайджан), а так же известен как Шейх Сафи (Суфи) Ковёр Ковров.

The Ardabil carpet measures 10.51m x 5.34m (34' 6" x 17' 6") and is thought to be one of the largest carpets in the world.
The two carpets were almost certainly a royal commission and would have taken about four years to weave. Their origins remain unclear but they are said to have come from a complex of shrines and mosques at Ardabil in North West Persia, burial place of Shaikh Safi al-Din, ancestor of Shah Ismail, founder of the Safavid dynasty. At one end of the Ardabil carpet, a cartouche contains an inscription which dates it to 1539/40 AD. The large central medallion is characteristic of carpets woven in Tabriz (North West Persia) and the fantastic design of the ground of the carpet consisting of two layers of swirling leaves, stems and flowers is typical of the art of the early Safavid dynasty.
