Kashan

Kashan rugs originate from the city of Kashan in Isfahan Province, central Iran — one of the oldest Persian weaving centres with roots in the Safavid era. Knotted with the asymmetrical (Persian) knot on a cotton foundation, they are celebrated for their poised medallion layouts, lyrical florals, and rich, warm colour palette dominated by deep reds, blues, and ivory.

The neatly clipped, velvety pile gives Kashan rugs a crisp, finished appearance. Shah Abbas palmettes, flowing arabesques, and intricate floral borders are executed with precision. From classic workshop pieces to collectible Mohtasham styles, Kashan remains a symbol of Persian elegance. This particular piece has been enhanced with luxurious silk accents, lending the rug a subtle luminescence and exceptional tactile quality. The master weaver has signed this piece—a mark of exceptional quality and pride in their craft.

Measuring 220 × 136 cm, with an area of 2.99 m², crafted from Wool with Silk, Hand-knotted, this piece is a testament to masterful craftsmanship. The knot density of 441 000 - 500 000 / m² speaks to the extraordinary care woven into every inch.

Preserved in perfect condition, dense knotting and quality materials make kashan rugs enduring centrepieces for both traditional and modern interiors.
