Persian carpet Kashan

Rugs from the city of Kashan, one of the oldest and most esteemed centers of Persian weaving art, represent the pinnacle of classical Persian aesthetics. Their orderly composition, rich symbolism, and refined color palette make them a highly favored choice among connoisseurs of traditional rugs worldwide.

The aesthetic of Kashan rugs is based on balance and harmony – they are recognizable by their central medallion with lavish floral ornaments that spread across the entire surface in the form of vignettes, leaves, and arabesques. The patterns are exceptionally detailed and crafted with high precision, lending the rug a sense of delicacy and nobility.

The color palette of Kashan rugs typically includes deep reds, dark blues, ivory, and golden hues, occasionally featuring softer bluish or pastel tones. Colors are derived from natural dyes, such as indigo, rhubarb roots, pomegranate, or walnut shells, which impart a special softness and warmth.
