Royal Tradition from Central Iran

Kashan rugs have been manufactured in the city of Kashan since the Safavid dynasty. They are famous for their classic medallion in the center, surrounded by elegant floral motifs. The use of color often consists of red, blue and ivory. The handknobs tradition is sophisticated, with a medium to high knot density, resulting in a smooth, rich texture.

This historical background makes Kashan rugs an iconic example of Persian craftsmanship.
