Characteristics of the Origin (Kashan)

Kashan is a city located in central Iran, and it is a famous rug-producing region with a long history of rug-making dating back to around the 17th century. Cotton is often used for the foundation of the rugs, and high-quality wool is used for the pile. Older Kashan rugs also contain silk. Characteristic features of Kashan rugs include traditional medallion designs and Shah Abbasi floral patterns. Furthermore, being located between Qom and Isfahan, the designs often show influences from the workshops in both regions. Navy, red, and cream colors are frequently used. Kashan rugs are often high quality and more affordable compared to those from Isfahan and Qom.

Daily Care (Wool)

Remove dirt and dust by vacuuming or sweeping along the nap of the rug.
If you spill beverages, immediately blot up the liquid with an absorbent material (such as paper towels or tissues), then wipe with a damp cloth.
For stubborn stains: Dilute a neutral detergent (for wool/silk) with water, wring out a towel tightly, and gently wipe the surface. Afterward, wipe thoroughly with a damp cloth to remove any detergent residue, then dry in a well-ventilated shaded area.
