A Persian Masterpiece: The Kashan Rug

Be enchanted by the timeless beauty of this authentic Persian Kashan rug, a masterpiece of textile craftsmanship. Originating from the legendary city of Kashan, Persia, this example is an ode to the rich artistic tradition and skill of Persian master weavers.

Design and Motifs

The rug features a classic design, dominated by an elegant central medallion in an almond (or ghom) or shield shape, with pendants extending into the field. The field, in a bright cream color, is entirely covered by an intricate all-field floral pattern, characterized by stylized palmettes, elegant spiraling branches (arabesques), and delicate lotus flowers. The motifs are distributed with harmony and precision, creating a sense of depth and opulence.

The borders, also richly decorated, frame the medallion with continuous floral motifs, such as vines and rosettes, which echo the colors and elements of the field, giving the ensemble a refined completeness.

Colors and Materials

The chromatic palette of this Kashan is delicate yet vibrant: the bright cream background creates a luminous base, upon which stand out shades of deep blue, sky blue, and accents of golden ochre, terracotta, and beige. Small touches of cherry red and brown further enrich the floral details. The skillful use of color and the occasional presence of slight color variations, known as "abrash," testify to the authenticity of the natural pigments and the traditional dyeing process.

Made with high-quality hand-carded wool for the pile and a sturdy cotton warp, this rug is extremely durable and soft to the touch. Its knot density, between 160,000 and 200,000 knots per square meter, ensures extraordinary design definition and exceptional durability.

Perfect for Any Setting

A Kashan rug like this is not just a furnishing element, but a true investment. With its thickness of 1.2 cm, it offers comfort and warmth, and is ideal for enriching living rooms, dining rooms, or studies, bringing an atmosphere of luxury and sophistication to any environment, be it classic or contemporary.
