Qom Rugs are among the most acclaimed Persian workshop weavings, prized for their remarkable clarity of design and use of high-quality silk. The city of Qom emerged in the 20th century as a centre for refined silk carpet production, drawing on the heritage of earlier Persian artistry yet developing its own hallmark style. While both spellings, Qom and Qum, are used, each refers to the same city and weaving tradition known for luxury, finesse, and compositional precision.

Handmade Qom rugs are often distinguished by an exceptionally tight knot count, enabling crisp, detailed rendering of complex patterns. Fine silk weaving allows motifs to be depicted with luminous colour gradations and supple texture. Central medallion designs are common, as are all-over garden motif rugs and pictorial panels that depict scenes of nature, poetry, or architectural references. Many Qum carpet examples feature elaborate floral and pictorial patterns, often accentuated by elegant borders and subtle colour transitions.

A Persian Qom rug lends a sense of soft sophistication to both traditional and contemporary interiors. Their luminous, detailed surface makes them suitable for spaces where craftsmanship and subtle, expressive design can be appreciated at close hand. In the UK, Qom silk rugs are often favoured by collectors and those seeking handmade artistry that stands apart from mass-produced alternatives. The enduring reputation of these luxury Persian workshop rugs is grounded in their technical achievement and timeless visual appeal.
