Gonabad Rugs
Khorasan Character Built to Be Lived On
The Story
Gonabad rugs come from the city of Gonabad in Razavi Khorasan Province, one of the established weaving centres of northeast Iran. Hand-knotted with the asymmetric Persian knot, these rugs feature classic Khorasan aesthetics: rich medallion layouts, balanced floral fields, and the warm earthy palettes typical of the northeastern Iranian plateau.
The construction is city-workshop quality with practical durability that makes Gonabad rugs suitable for everyday living. Expect characteristic Herati-influenced drawing and refined colour sense that defines Khorasan carpet weaving at its most assured.
They’re ideal if you want a Khorasan-rooted Persian rug that’s beautiful enough for formal spaces and durable enough for everyday use.
