FAQs

Kashan prayer rugs originated in the city of Kashan in central Persia, renowned for producing high-knot-density textiles featuring an arched niche design known as a mihrab, frequently filled with detailed floral or tree-of-life motifs.

These carpets are hand-knotted using fine wool pile securely bound onto a durable cotton warp and weft foundation, resulting in a dense weave and clear pattern definition.

Authentic early 20th-century Kashan rugs exhibit asymmetrical Persian knots, a supple structure, rich natural dyes, and classic motifs such as central vases, floral foliage, and intricate multi-band borders.

A Persian prayer rug can serve as a focal point on polished floorboards, be wall-mounted as decorative textile art, or be layered over plain natural carpets to introduce depth and pattern.

Rotate the carpet annually to distribute wear evenly, vacuum gently without a suction brush bar, address spills immediately using damp absorbent cloths, and seek specialist cleaning for deep maintenance.
