Characteristics of the Region (Tabriz)

Tabriz, a city in northwestern Iran, is a very famous and popular carpet-producing region. It boasts a rich variety of designs and colors, and was also the capital of Iran during the Safavid dynasty. The oldest Tabriz carpets date back to 1500, and exports overseas began around 1900. Tabriz has many highly skilled carpet weavers, and silk and cotton are often used as foundational materials for the carpets. Wool and silk are mainly used for the pile, and the weaving is characteristically very fine. The designs are also diverse, including beautiful medallion patterns, traditional Persian Mahi designs, Gombadi patterns inspired by mosque ceilings, popular floral patterns, and even famous pictorial designs. The color palette is also rich, with pastel shades often seen in carpets made with wool and silk. Thus, Tabriz carpets are highly recommended for their rich designs and color variations.

What are Persian Carpets?

Persian carpets are rugs woven in Iran. They have a long history and are renowned for their beauty and durability, lasting for generations. They are one of the most excellent artistic handicrafts representing Iranian culture and art. Due to differences in carpet designs and materials used by region, Iran boasts a wide variety of carpets. These range from delicate and intricate designs woven in workshops to simple, geometric tribal rugs woven by Iranian ethnic groups. The main materials used are wool and silk. The beautiful designs and subtle color palettes of Persian carpets possess an unparalleled charm. By incorporating a unique Persian carpet into your room, you can further enhance its atmosphere.

Daily Care (Wool)

Remove dirt and dust by vacuuming or sweeping along the direction of the pile. If stains are a concern: dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water, wring out a towel tightly, and gently wipe the surface. Then, carefully wipe with water to remove the detergent, and dry in a well-ventilated, shaded area.

Important Notes

Due to being hand-woven, there may be slight distortions in shape, weaving irregularities, and dye variations. Please enjoy these as part of the charm of a hand-woven piece.
