Kashan carpets originate from the city of Kashan in central Iran, a historical centre for silk and wool weaving dating back to the Safavid dynasty. These rugs are globally recognised for their fine knot density, sophisticated floral motifs, and balanced medallion compositions.

Authentic antique Kashan carpets are traditionally hand-knotted using high-grade wool on a cotton foundation, occasionally incorporating silk highlights. Weavers use the asymmetric Persian knot, resulting in a dense pile and intricate detail definition.

Authenticity is determined by examining the knot count on the reverse, the natural abrash or subtle colour variations in the vegetable dyes, and the quality of the hand-spun wool. Traditional Kashans typically feature a central medallion surrounded by dense floral arabesques and palmettes.

An antique oriental carpet acts as a grounding anchor in a contemporary living space, contrasting clean architectural lines with rich texture and historical pattern. It pairs effectively with minimalist furniture, neutral walls, and natural wood or leather finishes.

Preservation requires regular vacuuming with a suction-only attachment to avoid damaging the fringe and pile, alongside professional hand-washing by specialists in textile conservation. Keeping the carpet out of direct sunlight prevents natural dye fading.
