Kashan: An important and
famous center for oriental rugs production in Iran. The golden age of Kashan
with its magnificent court rugs, took place during the Safavid rule in the 16th
and 17th centuries. After about a 250-year decline, Kashan began emerging again
as a leading weaving center in the late 19th early 20th centuries. During this
time Australian wool which was actually spun in Manchester England was used.
These "Manchester Kashan" had a glossy sheen to their finish and
their floral designs were frequently on a red background. Contemporary Kashan
rugs are woven on a cotton foundation, are double wefted and have about 200
knots per square " Their primary design includes a diamond shaped
medallion with pendants at top and bottom.
100% handmade!
The colours of the rug look different depending on the angle from which you look at it.
