Persian rugs are like paintings
They lift your soul and your mood…
And instantly grab your attention, and win your affection!
Even the Shah Abbas, one of Persia’s greatest kings…
Was so inspired by the hand-knotted magic carpets of that era, that when he moved the capital of Iran from Qazvin to Isfahan…
He commissioned dozens (if not thousands) of rug artisans to begin weaving “royal rugs” that would delight the senses.
Which is why Isfahan rugs are so rich in color and design.
And it’s why many of the rugs from the Isfahan region have such a high-knot count.
Because as you probably know, the more knots a hand-knotted rug has, the more time, love and precision went into making it.
And because the King of that era spared no expense…
The rugs that came out of Isfahan, were (and still are) some of the best in the world.
What’s more, the techniques from that era, (particularly high-knot count rugs) are still highly-regarded and sought after today!
Isfahan rugs exhibit great technical skill and sophisticated motifs.
The designs are exquisitely intricate and curvilinear with delicate floral motifs.
And classical designs include vases, arabesque, scroll, hunting motifs, as well as interlaced spiraling vines known as: islimis.
