DESCRIPTION:
This rug is knotted in central Persia. The carpet with a high quality usually have medallion patterns with floral fields, but variations occur.
The rugs are handmade in the city of Kashan and its surroundings. Superior carpets were manufactured here during the Safavid dynasty (1502-1736). After a period of decline, high-quality carpets were being manufactured again at the end of the 19th century. These rugs are manufactured with high knot density with Persian knot, warp and weft of cotton and the wool for the pile is of high quality. The patterns consist of beautifully designed medallions, niches, trees and figural motifs and all-over floral motifs occur also. Dominating colours are blue, red and beige.
