Situated in the heart of Iran’s weaving landscape, Kashan Rugs occupy a central place within the tradition of Persian carpet craftsmanship. The city’s historic workshops have produced pieces admired for their technical clarity and mature design sensibility. Kashan weaving is closely associated with harmonious medallion and floral design, often employing curvilinear motifs that distinguish these rugs from more angular regional styles. A focus on precise drawing and crisp borders subtly marks the Kashan carpet, setting a high standard within hand-knotted Persian Kashan rugs.
Wool and silk construction is common, with high-grade wool offering a lustrous surface and, in certain antique Kashan rugs, silk elements highlighting intricate details. The influence of royal workshops continues to be felt in the meticulous planning and balanced proportions found in many handmade Kashan rugs. This historic connection not only defines the aesthetic but ensures a legacy of quality control that resonates with serious collectors.
For UK interiors, Kashan rugs complement both period and contemporary spaces. Their measured use of pattern, combined with a palette that ranges from deep indigo to nuanced ivory, allows them to integrate effortlessly into diverse design schemes. The collection exemplifies central Persian weaving at its most refined, drawing on generations of skill to deliver rugs of lasting sophistication.
