About eCarpetGallery's Kashan Persian Carpets
Kashan is a famous city in the Isfahan province in West Central Iran. The Persian Kashan area rugs are extremely reputable and have been mentioned in literature ever since the 16th century. Weavers use high quality wool to hand knot the Kashan area rugs. Some Kashan rugs are also produced in nearby towns and areas such as Ardistan and Khorasan. Many other Iranian carpet styles as well as carpet styles in other countries have been influenced by these magnificent rugs. You can observe many curvilinear outlines throughout our Persian rugs selection. Many of the traditional designs included are elongated medallion-shapes and rounded floral medallions. Along the borders, there is an abundant amount of continuous flowery patterns that flow beautifully around all four corners and sides.
The strong colors give the Kashan Persian rugs a concrete state of nobility and exquisiteness. A recurring observance of rich red, navy, ivory, blue and beige are found within the designs. These genuine hand knotted rugs are made with a Persian or asymmetrical weave. This gives the weavers the ability to create amazing designs with vivid patterns and floral structures. Every one is hand made with a great quality wool pile on a cotton foundation. The wool is often known as Kurk wool. This type of wool is taken from the necks of lambs, where the wool is durable and highly efficient for weaving.
All of our Kashan carpets whether brand new or semi antique, are ready for you to place in your home. The advantage at eCarpetGallery.com is that we buy our rugs directly from the weavers so can offer them for sale at fantastic prices. Contact us today for your next rug purchase.
